Europa Clipper

Description
"To determine if this distant moon has conditions favorable for life, NASA’s Europa Clipper mission is preparing to conduct the first dedicated and detailed study of an ocean world beyond Earth.

The expedition’s objective is to explore Europa to investigate its habitability. The spacecraft is not being sent to find life itself, but will instead try to answer specific questions about Europa’s ocean, ice shell, composition and geology.

Outfitted with a powerful suite of science investigations, the spacecraft will also be prepared for unexpected discoveries, chasing the answers to new questions that we do not yet know to ask"

I hope it will be set in orbit as soon as it is launched. I heard that tomorrow is the launch date.
