We are one hour from the launch of our @EuropaClipper spacecraft, set to explore Jupiter's ocean moon that may hold the ingredients for life. Watch here: x.com/i/broadcasts/1…










🤩 One last look at #EuropaClipper as the payload fairings close! The spacecraft will be on a nearly 6-year journey to investigate if there are habitable conditions on Jupiter’s moon Europa. Liftoff is targeted for Oct. 10 on a SpaceX Falcon Heavy!🚀 blogs.nasa.gov/europaclipper/







Today @LucyMission flies by it’s first asteroid target, the intriguing main belt asteroid Dinkinesh. I’m so excited, I was lucky enough to have been involved in this mission since early in the process and it’s been amazing to see it through launch and now onto a target. Go Lucy!
