Abstract :
The radiowaves transmitted by space probes and received on the Earth gave information on the media interacting with them. The results of the investigations of the Mars and Venus atmospheres, the Moon and Venus´ surfaces, and the plasma near the sun obtained by modern experimental methods of radiowave propagation, are described.
