😎Can you spot Earth in this closeup of the Moon? The image was taken during a recent flyby of the European Space Agency’s Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer (Juice). Juice includes a suite of 10 instruments including the SwRI-developed Juice-UVS that will collect data and explore Jupiter and its large ocean moons Ganymede, Callisto and Europa. The ESA spacecraft launched last year. The recent flyby is the first of four gravity-assist flybys to accelerate Juice on its journey to the Jovian system. Juice will fly by Venus in 2025 and by Earth again in 2026 and 2029. It will arrive in the Jovian system in July of 2031. #Flyby
