MABB v6.6.6

In a few hours, a spacecraft should blast-off from Florida on the hunt for signs of alien life Its destination is Europa, a deeply-mysterious moon orbiting the distant planet Jupiter Trapped under its icy surface could be a vast ocean with double the amount of water on Earth The Europa Clipper spacecraft will chase a European mission that left last year, but using a cosmic piggyback, it will overtake and arrive first

Arrival in 2030, something to look forward to

I saw that movie, it didn't end well for the crew.

This is how Doom more or less starts.

Europa speaks to the imagination

After launch, the spacecraft plans to fly by Mars in February 2025, then back by Earth in December 2026, using the gravity of each planet to increase its momentum With help of these “gravity assists,” Europa Clipper will achieve the velocity needed to reach Jupiter in April 2030

The ESA project made a nice picture on it's way to Europa It is an interstellar comet
