In space news this morning, we have this… NASA has approved the October 10 launch of the Europa Clipper spacecraft, set to journey to Jupiter’s moon Europa. The mission aims to explore the moon’s icy crust and investigate its potential subsurface ocean. Recent concerns about the spacecraft’s electronics, which must endure intense radiation, have been addressed through extensive testing. Experts now say they have high confidence in the mission’s success. The spacecraft, launching aboard a SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket, will take six years to reach Jupiter, where it will conduct close flybys of Europa.
