"Juno spacecraft detects potential activity on Jupiter's moon Europa"
NASA's Juno spacecraft captured high-resolution images of Jupiter's moon Europa, revealing potential hints of present-day surface activity, including an oddly-shaped area resembling a platypus. Comparisons with earlier images suggest changes in the surface, possibly indicating present-day activity. The image also shows nearby dark stains that may be associated with subsurface liquid water and plumes. While not conclusive, these findings make Europa a compelling target for future missions such as NASA’s Europa Clipper and Europe's JUICE to investigate and confirm present-day surface activity.
