In the modern society, scholars and researchers have already gained a fundamental understanding of our solar system, based on the multiple samples taken from a variety of detectors. Indeed, the detectors of planets in solar system play a vital role to investigate different planets. Therefore, with this in mind, this paper has compared with several state-of-art main-stream detectors, including Juno spacecraft, Akatsuki and Perseverance Mars Rover. According to the sample from Perseverance Mars Rover, scientists can make a progress in the understanding of Mars’s composition and whether there is the scent of ancient life on Mars. In the accordance with Akatsuki’s data, people have concluded the atmospheric structure on Venus. Based on the graphs gained by the Juno spacecraft, modern scientists can correct the theory of Jovian Lighting and understand the source of Zodiacal light. As a result, the thesis has concluded these three types of detectors ‘s characters, providing a relatively objective references about today’s detector’s features for the future development. Overall, these results shed light on guiding further exploration of planet detections.
