131 - Juno at Europa (feat. Scott Bolton)

Juno has been exploring the Jupiter system since 2016, and has taught us a lot about the clouds, the magnetosphere, and the origin of the largest planet in our solar system. Now in its extended mission, it's exploring the Jovian moons in a series of flybys, including a recent pass by Europa. The mission's PI Scott Bolton joins Jake to talk about this flyby, the science results we've gotten, and what's ahead for this intrepid explorer.We talk Juno and EuropaFirst images of EuropaClosest images of Europa from Star trackerJunoCam imagesFollow ScottScott's Twitter (@ScottBoltonJuno)Follow Jake & WeMartiansWeMartians.comPatreon (https://www.wemartians.com/support)WeMartians Shop (shop.wemartians.com)Mailing List (https://wemartians.com/signup)Twitter (@we_martians)Jake’s Twitter (@JakeOnOrbit)Off-Nominal YouTubeMarsti.meHorsepower DesignNASA's Space Launch system is shelved again until November, which means the horse is headed back to the barn, so to speak.
