We have a very healthy and well-behaved spacecraft. And 79,200 mph relative to the sun is pretty darn fast, thanks to our @NASA_LSP @SpaceX Falcon Heavy launch! The team continues to Work tirelessly to checkout all of Europa Clipper’s systems. 🚀.
This story is really beginning to unfold: While zooming through space at 22 miles per second (35 kilometers per second), our spacecraft has deployed its solar arrays, magnetometer boom, and now the antennas for its ice-penetrating radar instrument

Quite a week at @NASAKennedy working with @NASA_LSP and @SpaceX - The integrated team is keeping us on track for the launch of @EuropaClipper 🚀 Fantastic work by everyone! One step closer to unlocking the secrets of the ocean world, Europa!.
🤩 One last look at #EuropaClipper as the payload fairings close!. The spacecraft will be on a nearly 6-year journey to investigate if there are habitable conditions on Jupiter’s moon Europa. Liftoff is targeted for Oct. 10 on a SpaceX Falcon Heavy!🚀.

I’m so proud of this team and their methodical approach to solving seemingly insurmountable problems. Thank you @dwbwriter for sharing their story. It certainly was quite a summer!.Go @EuropaClipper 🚀.#DareMightyThingsTogether.
Five months before launch, Europa Clipper engineers discovered that their radiation-proof spacecraft. wasn't. For @nytimes, here is the inside story of the desperate race to save NASA's flagship mission to Jupiter's ocean moon.

I know what I’m doing this morning while drinking my cup of coffee….
Can't wait for the launch? Trust us, we know how you feel. Here's one cool thing to tide you over until October: the Europa Clipper AR experience. Turn your mobile device into a virtual window into both the moon and our spacecraft!

First we counted in years until launch. Then months. Then weeks. Now we are 27 days from the opening of the @EuropaClipper launch period. The journey to create this amazing machine ends and, in 27 days, the journey through space to unlock the mysteries of Europa begins! 🚀.
In less than a month, the journey begins. @EuropaClipper is a mission crafted with one overarching goal: determine if Jupiter’s icy moon, Europa, has conditions suitable for life. #EuropaClipper’s launch window opens on Oct. 10. Dive in:

Achieving today’s milestone is the work of many hands, across many organizations, giving of themselves. Thank you #TeamEuropaClipper for your diligence and focus as we prepare for the upcoming launch. 🚀 #DareMightyThingsTogether.
That's a go: Today our mission passed a standard planning milestone known as Key Decision Point E. We're now approved to proceed toward a launch period that opens Thursday, Oct. 10.

An update on the amazing work of the @EuropaClipper team is coming this Monday! Onward! 🚀.
.@NASA will hold a media teleconference at 4 p.m. EDT, Monday, Sept. 9, to provide an update on Europa Clipper, a mission that will study whether Jupiter’s moon Europa could be hospitable to life. The teleconference will occur after a key decision point meeting earlier that day

I’m so proud of the work of this team! We remain on track for launch and I look forward to the remaining reviews and decision points leading up to our launch! 🚀 #DareMightyThingsTogether.
Our mission to explore Jupiter's moon Europa remains on track, with a launch period opening on Oct. 10. We recently conducted extensive testing of our spacecraft's transistors, and results suggest they're ready to support our baseline mission.

It’s been quite a while since I’ve posted. I guess I’ve been busy with the amazing @EuropaClipper project! Check out what we’ve been up to…. It’s so thrilling to see it all come together and to see the incredible team @NASAJPL @JHUAPL and @NASA_LSP bring this all together! 🚀.
A real power move! ⚡️ Here's a look at engineers and technicians at @NASAKennedy deploying the first of two massive solar arrays that will provide electricity for our spacecraft at Jupiter – which is more than five times as far from the Sun as Earth.
