The replies have some details. Apparently the probe has a bunch of features to deal with the heat, including a 6000 watt cooling system and tungsten electrical wiring.

Ponder this: tungsten has the highest melting point of any metal. So what does the process to make wires look like?

You don't need to melt metal to make wire.

I mean, I'd assume it's drawing or crushing down with wheels like usual. Wires aren't typically made by casting, as far as I know.

You don't typically melt metal to make stuff with it. Copper wire is forced through smaller and smaller dies to get it down to size. I'd imagine tungsten wire is made much the same way

Tungsten isn't naturally ductile.

Here's a video about making lightbulb filaments that goes into it a bit. https://youtu.be/DIGqBb3iZPo

That video has nowhere near the amount of chipper music needed to ferry facts into my brain.

The video I linked carefully details every step of the process and the tune is an absolute banger.

A picture is worth a thousand words and this has to be at least 1,000 words in the obituary so assuming it's transitive in both directions it counts as a pic.
