Scientific experts from NASA/JPL-Caltech and ESA will talk about how the European-American collaboration promotes the search for habitable worlds, in the exploration of Jupiter’s moon.
Europa and Ganymede, and potentially Callisto, three natural satellites of Jupiter, host global liquid saltwater oceans maintained by internal heating beneath their icy surfaces. These oceans have captured the interest and curiosity of the scientific community: do they harbor environments and conditions suitable for life?
