TL;DR Summary

The European Space Agency's JUICE mission, set to launch on April 13, will explore Jupiter's moons Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto for potential signs of habitability and subsurface oceans. The mission will also seek to answer questions about planetary formation and the solar system in general. JUICE will perform 35 Jovian moon flybys and end with the spacecraft settling into a circular orbit around Ganymede, where it will work for an estimated six months and come as close as 311 miles (500 km) to its surface.
