NASA’s Europa Clipper Mission
Summary: NASA’s Europa Clipper mission, launching on October 10, 2024, aboard a SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket, aims to investigate the potential for life in the ocean beneath Europa’s icy surface. With a budget of $5 billion, the spacecraft will conduct 49 close flybys, collecting data about the moon’s ice and subsurface ocean. After extensive testing to address radiation concerns, the mission is set for a six-year journey to Jupiter, where it will provide crucial insights into Europa’s habitability.
