Summary

Description	English: This artist's rendering shows NASA's Europa Clipper spacecraft, which is being developed for a launch in October 2024. This view shows the spacecraft configuration, which could change before launch, as of early-2016. The concept image shows two large solar arrays extending from the sides of the spacecraft, to which the mission's ice-penetrating radar antennas are attached. A saucer-shaped high-gain antenna is also side mounted, with a magnetometer boom placed next to it. On the forward end of the spacecraft (at left in this view) is a remote-sensing palette, which houses the rest of the science instrument payload. The nominal mission would perform at least 45 flybys of Europa at altitudes varying from 1,700 miles to 16 miles (2,700 kilometers to 25 kilometers) above the surface. This view takes artistic liberty with Jupiter's position in the sky relative to Europa and the spacecraft.
