Summary
A June meeting announced by Barrie 360 will feature a talk on NASA’s Europa Clipper mission, now 1.5 years into its 5.5-year trip to Jupiter.
The presentation will outline why scientists are searching for life beyond Earth and why Europa remains a target despite its seemingly unlikely conditions.
Evidence to be discussed centers on the possibility that Jupiter’s icy moon could still support life, framing Europa Clipper’s scientific goals for a local audience.
