An #ESA mission to #Jupiter is set to launch tomorrow morning. An #Ariane5 carrying the Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer, or #JUICE, spacecraft rolled out to the launch pad in French Guiana Tuesday for the launch, scheduled for 8:15 a.m. Eastern Thursday. JUICE will arrive at Jupiter in mid-2031, making dozens of flybys of the large moons #Europa, #Ganymede, and #Callisto before going into orbit around Ganymede, studying those icy moons and their subsurface oceans.
