Science is booming! We've successfully deployed the magnetometer boom. Once we arrive at Europa, the Europa Clipper Magnetometer (ECM) aims to confirm that Europa’s ocean exists, measure its depth and salinity, and measure the ice shell's thickness.

My gosh, wait 'til we get there. It's been a little over a year since #MissionToPsyche launched on its way to study a mysterious metal-rich asteroid. As it cruises along its six-year journey, the team reflects on that day, what the mission has accomplished, and what's ahead. https://t.co/HxNgyK56gw

One week ago: we set sail for Jupiter's ocean moon Europa. The spacecraft is now about 2.41 million miles (3.88 million kilometers) from Earth. Next up are a series of checkouts and instrument deployments, then a flyby of Mars. All about the mission: https://t.co/KX1yfEbiNu https://t.co/jCnNkr7TVq

At the shore of two vast oceans: the Atlantic and the night sky. We’re wishing fair winds and following seas to our spacecraft as it sets out for Jupiter’s moon Europa. https://t.co/KX1yfEbiNu Jupiter rising over the ocean at Cape Canaveral, Florida on Oct. 14, 2024 https://t.co/peHbOoj6Zk

Jupiter’s moon Europa shows strong evidence for an ocean of liquid water beneath its icy crust. In fact, it could have all the ingredients needed for life. In October, we set sail to take a closer look – here's how we'll do it. https://t.co/jy7m6NlYiD
