The Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer (JUICE) is launched by the European Space Agency.

European mission to study Jupiter and its moons since 2023
🗓️ 14 April 2023

The Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer is an interplanetary spacecraft developed by the European Space Agency (ESA) and on its way to orbit and study three icy moons of Jupiter: Ganymede, Callisto, and Europa. These planetary-mass moons are planned to be studied because they are thought to have significant bodies of liquid water beneath their frozen surfaces, which would make them potentially habitable for extraterrestrial life.
