“Working with amazing teams, just like the Europa Clipper team here at JPL, is amazing. It was just really a privilege to work on that. And I would say they’re just a bunch of breaks, some disappointments, but when you do get a disappointment, you just have to press on.” Dr. Bonnie Buratti is the deputy project scientist for Europa Clipper, which is currently en route to conduct sweeping flybys of one of Jupiter’s four large Galilean moons to look for a habitable environment similar to Earth’s. Learn more about her journey on the most recent episode of our "Small Steps, Giant Leaps" podcast: https://lnkd.in/er6XKXSM

  • The surface of Jupiter’s icy moon Europa looms large in this color view, made from images taken by NASA’s Galileo spacecraft in the late 1990s. Long, linear cracks and ridges crisscross the surface, interrupted by regions of disrupted terrain where the surface ice crust has been broken up and re-frozen into new patterns. Color variations across the surface are associated with differences in geologic feature type and location. For example, areas that appear blue or white contain relatively pure water ice, while reddish and brownish areas include non-ice components in higher concentrations. The polar regions, visible at the left and right of this view, are noticeably bluer than the more equatorial latitudes, which look more white. Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech/SETI Institute

"Dr. Bonnie Buratti's words capture the essence of true exploration and resilience. The journey with the Europa Clipper team sounds like an inspiring mix of challenges and breakthroughs—a reminder that pushing the boundaries of knowledge takes both grit and perseverance. Exploring Jupiter’s moon with the potential to uncover a habitable environment? Now that's the kind of mission that fuels dreams and reshapes our understanding of life in the cosmos. Hats off to the Europa Clipper team! 🚀🌌 #SpaceExploration #EuropaClipper #NASA #Inspiration"

but is it also possible to put a fixed satellite in that position that acts as a focus and uses the earth as an ellipse section instead of a normal ellipse and thus transmit the data into space? the placement of the fire should be perfect right height right direction perfect height etc. and to improve the incomplete reflection we could put the focus where there is the ocean and not the land, for example at the equator of the Pacific Ocean since the earth makes a complete rotation so there is no risk of not being able to transmit in other directions

Wether or not we find life on Europa, we will learn a lot about habitability and our solar system.

    This is exactly what my research covers. The orbital debris crisis demands both technological and political improvements to keep LEO clean and ensure the health and sustainability of future space missions.

    With approximately 500,000 marble-sized debris objects in Earth’s orbit, and an estimated 100 million objects of one millimeter or smaller, how can we keep low Earth orbit safe and usable for future generations?

    Time to clean up. National and international regulation should command that all new satellites and space assets have the ability to self-propel to a designated graveyard area at end of life or end of use. Through a international consortium, bounty should be placed on larger defunct space debris, and allow salvors to relocate to graveyard zone. Once relocation is proven bounty can be awarded to salvors. Potentially space junkyards could be set up in L4 and L5. These spent space assets can be recycled and reused for future in space construction. The option for forced entry burn up of space debris should be limited for safety and environmental protection.

    Keeping low Earth orbit safe for future generations involves a combination of policy, technology, and international cooperation. Strengthening international treaties and enforcing national regulations can help minimize debris creation and ensure compliance with mitigation guidelines. Developing and deploying active debris removal technologies, such as nets and lasers, along with designing spacecraft to burn up upon re-entry, can reduce existing debris. Enhancing space situational awareness and implementing automated collision avoidance systems are crucial for preventing collisions. Encouraging sustainable practices in satellite operations and investing in research and development of new technologies will support long-term solutions. Public awareness and industry standards play a vital role in fostering a culture of responsibility in space activities.
