I apologize for the mistake in my initial response.
The weight of the space probe on both planet X and planet Y will be the same, since weight depends on the gravitational force acting on the object, which is determined by the mass of the object and the gravitational field strength of the planet. Since the gravitational field strength on both planets is the same (assuming the volume is the same), the weight of the space probes on both planets will be the same, even though the mass of the planets is different.
Therefore, the correct statement is:
The weight of the space probe on planet X will be the same as the weight of the space probe on planet Y.
