- NASA revealed the Clipper spacecraft aimed to launch in October 2024 toward Jupiter’s moon Europa.
- Europa is considered a key candidate for supporting life due to its subsurface ocean beneath an icy crust.
- The mission’s instruments will analyze ice thickness and locate liquid water beneath the surface.
- After completing its science objectives, the probe will be intentionally crashed into another Jovian moon around 2034.
If we were to find the conditions for life, and then someday actually find life in a place like Europa, then that would say in our own solar system there are two examples of life: Earth and Europa.— Bob Pappalardo, the mission’s project scientist, discussed the implications of discovering life on Europa.
