363 kilograms of fuel used
First-of-Its-Kind Flyby
Moon and Earth gravity assist
Initial burn achieved 95% of required velocity change
JUICE’s weight around 6000 kg
Challenges of Gravity Assist
Demands meticulous timing and direction alignment
Achieving slingshot effect
Navigating planet’s gravitational field
What Lies Ahead?
Second smaller maneuver planned
Fine-tune JUICE’s path
