Explore the Mysteries of Europa with NASA’s Webinar on Europa Clipper: Seeking Conditions to Support Life on Jupiter’s Icy Moon Mission on July 23, 2024.

About NASA

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration is an independent agency of the U.S. federal government responsible for the civil space program, aeronautics research, and space research.

About Europa Clipper

In October 2024, NASA is sending a mission to explore an ocean on another world. Europa, a moon of Jupiter, has a global ocean of liquid water under an icy surface. The Europa Clipper mission will orbit Jupiter, making several close approaches to Europa to collect data on geology, chemistry, and determine whether there are places below Europa’s surface that could support life.
