Europa Clipper
Europa Clipper (previously known as Europa Multiple Flyby Mission) is an interplanetary mission in development by NASA comprising an orbiter. Set for a launch in October 2024, the spacecraft is being developed to study the Galilean moon Europa through a series of flybys while in orbit around Jupiter. The mission is scheduled to launch in October 2024 during a 21-day launch window and expected to arrive in April 2030. The spacecraft will use gravity assists from Mars in February 2025 and Earth in December 2026, a "MEGA" trajectory.
