Sun Probe was a space probe used to collect particles from around the sun. If not for International Rescue, the Sun Probe mission would have been a disaster. Using an ion drive and a chemical rocket system, the Sun Probe's launch thrust of 20 million pounds gave it the acceleration to reach solar orbit in a week. Even Cape Kennedy's backup system couldn't stop the Sun Probe from heading straight for the sun. A safety beam activated from Thunderbird 3 managed to fire the retros, which allowed the Sun Probe to head back to Earth.

  • Sun Probe was a space probe used to collect particles from around the sun. If not for International Rescue, the Sun Probe mission would have been a disaster. Using an ion drive and a chemical rocket system, the Sun Probe's launch thrust of 20 million pounds gave it the acceleration to reach solar orbit in a week. The three solarnauts, Colonel Harris, Asher and Camp remained aboard the Sun Probe while the nose cone was detached to collect the particles from a solar prominence and then retrieved. But because of the sun's high radiation levels and electromagnetic pulse particles, the Sun Probe's retros failed and the probe went on a collision course with the surface of the sun, which meant the Sun Probe, as well as all three solarnauts, would have been killed by its extreme heat. Even Cape Kennedy's backup system couldn't stop the Sun Probe from heading straight for the sun. A safety beam activated from Thunderbird 3 managed to fire the retros, which allowed the Sun Probe to head back to Earth. The red nose cone is constructed from cahelium and ceramic additives, and the fuel, Toxerlene is developed from seawater.
