These animation sequences show NASA's Europa Clipper spacecraft leaving Earth, deploying in space, and journeying to the Jupiter system where it will perform multiple flybys of Europa.
Europa Clipper will conduct a detailed survey to determine whether the icy moon could have conditions suitable for life. The spacecraft will shift its flight path for each flyby to soar over a different location so that it eventually scans nearly the entire moon.
Europa Clipper launched Oct. 14, 2024, from Kennedy Space Center, Florida.
