"NASA's Europa Clipper: Hunting for Active Plumes and Life"

NASA has unveiled the $5 billion Clipper spacecraft, set to launch in October and head for Jupiter's moon Europa in search of conditions that could support extraterrestrial life. The probe, equipped with various instruments, will study the moon's icy surface and potential liquid water beneath. Despite challenges such as radiation and power supply, scientists hope to gain insights into the possibility of life beyond Earth, with the mission expected to conclude around 2034.
