NASA Clears Europa Clipper for Launch to Jupiter's Moon

The spacecraft's critical components passed radiation tests, ensuring it can explore the potentially habitable Europa.

Europa Clipper's launch window opens on October 10, following approval from NASA.
The mission aims to determine if Europa's subsurface ocean could support life.
Engineers conducted extensive tests on transistors to ensure they can withstand Jupiter's radiation.
The spacecraft will perform 49 flybys of Europa over a four-year period.
Europa Clipper is equipped with 10 science instruments for detailed exploration.
