NASA to Launch Imposing Europa Clipper Mission to Investigate Life on Jupiter's Moon on Monday
Oct 14, 2024, 06:19 AM
NASA is set to launch the imposing Europa Clipper mission on Monday, embarking on a five-and-a-half-year journey to Jupiter's moon Europa. The mission aims to investigate the possibility of life on the icy moon by conducting detailed studies of its surface and subsurface oceans. Preparations for the mission have included simulations of moonwalks, both on land and underwater, to better understand the environment. The Europa Clipper will provide crucial data that could answer longstanding questions about the potential for life beyond Earth.
