TL;DR Summary

Europe's JUICE Jupiter probe has fixed its Radar for Icy Moons Exploration (RIME) antenna after more than three weeks of intense troubleshooting efforts. RIME is a key piece of JUICE's scientific package, which will be used to study the surface and subsurface structure of Jupiter's icy moons down to a depth of 9 km. After arriving in orbit around Jupiter, JUICE will study the moons Ganymede, Callisto, and Europa up close during a series of flybys.
