ESA's Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer Faces Antenna Deployment Failure.

The Radar for Icy Moons Exploration (RIME) antenna on ESA’s Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer (Juice) spacecraft has encountered an issue preventing its deployment, potentially caused by a stuck pin. Despite this, Juice’s other instruments are functioning properly, and there’s a two-month window to solve the problem. Work continues to free the radar, and teams at ESA’s mission control center in Darmstadt, Germany, along with partners in science and industry, have lots of ideas up their sleeves.
