NASA’s Europa Clipper Mission Animations

Animations for media and public use. These animation sequences show NASA’s Europa Clipper spacecraft mission leaving Earth, deploying in space, and journeying to the Jupiter system. It will then perform multiple flybys of the icy moon Europa. The Europa Clipper will conduct a detailed survey of Jupiter's moon Europa to determine whether the icy moon could harbor conditions suitable for life. The spacecraft, in orbit around Jupiter, will make dozens of close passes over Europa, shifting its flight path for each flyby to soar over a different location so that it eventually scans nearly the entire moon. The Europa Clipper is expected to launch in October 2024 from Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, Florida.
