NASA Launches Europa Clipper to Investigate Jupiter's Icy Moon for Potential Life
NASA's Europa Clipper mission has launched to study Jupiter's icy moon Europa, which may harbor a potentially habitable ocean beneath its surface.
NASA's Europa Clipper snaps its 1st starry image en route to Jupiter's icy moon
This week, NASA released the first image from the Europa Clipper spacecraft's voyage. The image is a mosaic of a star field, created from three shots the solar-powered orbiter captured in December of 2024, less than two months after it launched atop a SpaceX Falcon Heavy from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida.
NASA’s Europa Clipper Captures First Starfield Images From Deep Space
NASA’s Europa Clipper is well on its way to Jupiter’s icy moon, Europa, set to arrive in 2030. While its science instruments remain dormant for now, its star trackers are actively working, snapping images of distant stars to help orient the spacecraft.
En route to Jupiter, Europa Clipper captures images of stars
Three months after its launch from NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, the agency's Europa Clipper has another 1.6 billion miles (2.6 billion kilometers) to go before it reaches Jupiter's orbit in 2030 to take close-up images of the icy moon Europa with science cameras.
NASA's Jupiter-Bound Europa Clipper Sends First Images From Over 85 Million Kilometres Away
NASA shared the image on Wednesday captured by Europa Clipper which launched on October 14, 2024 to Jupiter. The picture features stars captured by Clipper's star tracker cameras in early December. These stars are used as reference points to let the mission team know about the spacecraft's orientation in space.
