NASA's Europa Clipper: A Brave Trip to Study Life Possibilities on Jupiter's Frozen Moon.

NASA launched a spacecraft called Europa Clipper to explore Jupiter's moon, Europa. Europa is very interesting because it might have an ocean under its icy surface.

Europa Clipper will study the ocean to see if it could support life. It won't look for life directly, but it will check if the conditions are right.

The spacecraft is very big, with large solar panels to power it on its long journey. It will take more than five years for Europa Clipper to reach Jupiter.

Once there, it will fly close to Europa many times, taking pictures and using instruments to study it. Scientists want to know how thick the ice is, how deep the ocean is, and what might be in the water.

Europa is a very harsh environment with lots of radiation from Jupiter. But, scientists think that even in this tough environment, there might be some form of life in the ocean.
