Europe's Jupiter Icy Moons Misson: Juice Spacecraft Fully Integrated | ESA

Europe's Jupiter Icy Moons Misson: Juice Spacecraft Fully Integrated | ESA

Scheduled Launch Date: April 2023

The European Space Agency's Juice, JUpiter ICy moons Explorer, mission has entered its final phase of development, with the spacecraft moving to an Airbus Defence and Space facility in Toulouse, France, for the next round of testing. The spacecraft has been fully integrated, and these tests will be done in full flight configuration, as Juice is scheduled for launch from Europe’s Spaceport in Kourou, French Guiana, in April 2023.

The Juice mission is a perfect example of collaboration between several national space agencies and European industry. Its objective is to explore the gas giant Jupiter, its environment, and three of its moons: Europa, Callisto and Ganymede. By studying this planetary system, the European Space Agency (ESA) hopes to learn more about the icy worlds around Jupiter and the origins and possibility of life in our Universe.
