A mission of the NASA will look for life in Europe, the Jupiter moon

There is the ocean under the frozen surface of the Jupiter moon Europe. It could have strange creatures swimming in those foreign waters, but missions have until now not been sent to investigate this possibility there.

Ours nearer vision Europe provided us the Galileo ship, that orbited the joviano system from 1995 to 2003. Now, the investigators are developing a new plan to study the moon by far more detail. The mission Europe-Jupiter System (EJSM) will consist of a ship that orbits Europe and other than orbits Ganimedes, another one of great Jupiter moons that also could have the locked up liquid ocean under a frozen superficial layer.

The EJSM will be a joint mission of the NASA and the European Space Agency; THAT will be the one in charge of the ship that orbits Ganimedes, and the NASA, of which it orbits Europe. Working together, the two ships also will be able to carry out limited studies more of the moons Ío and Calisto, as well as of the Jupiter planet.

Brad Dalton of the Jet Laboratory Propulsion of the NASA, that is helping to outline the plan of the EJSM, says that some of the instruments that the orbitador of Europe will take will be a camera, a spectrometer and a powerful system of radar. The radar will allow the ship to see through ice of Europe and to find out the thickness that is this layer.

The scientists have dreamed about sending a ship that lands in the surface or a submarine to even investigate the ocean of Europe, but Dalton says that the present design of the mission does not include any instrument thus.
