JUICE Spacecraft's Engineers Successfully Resolve Antenna Issue and Collect First UV Data

The European Space Agency's Juice spacecraft encountered a problem during deployment when its Radar for Icy Moons Exploration (RIME) antenna failed to deploy properly. After weeks of attempts and troubleshooting, the team discovered a solution: warming up the pin in the sun and firing a nearby actuator to release it. The antenna successfully deployed, allowing Juice to continue its mission to investigate the icy moons of Jupiter.
