Europa is one of our solar system's most fascinating moons.

Roughly 90% the size of Earth's moon, scientists believe this moon of Jupiter has an enormous saltwater ocean beneath its icy shell. Europa is a challenging place to study given its location far from the Sun, far from Earth, and bathed in the radiation field surrounding Jupiter.

In this talk, Tracy Drain, chief engineer on the Europa Clipper mission, will share some of the engineering challenges involved in developing and launching this exciting spacecraft.
