In the coming weeks, NASA's Europa Clipper will take off on a long journey to Jupiter's moon Europa. The icy moon could potentially host alien life — and there's only one way to find out.

NASA's Europa Clipper mission, set to explore Jupiter's icy moon Europa, will commence with a launch on October 10 using a SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket. After a journey spanning 1.8 billion miles, the spacecraft aims to investigate Europa's subsurface ocean and its potential for life,

NASA and SpaceX have postponed the launch of the Europa Clipper mission, originally planned for October 10, because of expected hurricane conditions.

NASA is poised to launch Europa Clipper, a $5.2 billion mission to Jupiter’s fourth-largest moon, as early as October 10. The spacecraft will blast off from Kennedy Space Center in Florida atop a SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket. It will study Europa, a possible home for extraterrestrial life, through a series of flybys after reaching Jupiter in 2030.

Coming up next week, on october 10th, spacex's falcon heavy will be lifting off from cape canaveral with one of nasa's largest space crafts ever built called eu

Nasa is doing just that: launching a spacecraft on October 10 to Europa, a moon of Jupiter holding twice the water of all Earth’s oceans combined. Europa’s ocean is between 60 and 150 kilometres deep and is hidden beneath an outer shell of ice that’s 15 to 25 kilometres thick.
