商品描述
Europa, one of Jupiter's four largest moons, was discovered by Galileo Galilei in 1610. Early observations revealed its bright, icy surface, sparking curiosity about the details of its composition. NASA's Pioneer and Voyager missions provided the first close-up images hinting at a subsurface ocean beneath the ice. Additional evidence was supplied by the Galileo spacecraft in the 1990s. More recent observations have strengthened the idea that Europa's putative subsurface ocean may harbor the conditions conducive for biological activity. These discoveries have made Europa a prime target for astrobiological exploration, and NASA's Europa Clipper mission was designated to investigate Europa's habitability. This open-access Topical Collection serves as the primary reference for the mission's science objectives, the instruments used to achieve them, the spacecraft carrying and operating the payload, and the overall mission design. This book is a part of a set of two volumes on the Europa Clipper mission, featuring the research articles on the mission's science and instruments. Reprinted from Space Science Reviews, Topical Collection: Europa Clipper: A Mission to Explore Ocean World Habitability.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
歐羅巴(Europa)是木星四顆最大衛星之一,於1610年由伽利略·伽利萊(Galileo Galilei)發現。早期觀測顯示其明亮的冰冷表面,引發了對其成分細節的好奇。美國國家航空暨太空總署(NASA)的先驅號(Pioneer)和旅行者號(Voyager)任務提供了首批近距離影像,暗示冰層下方可能存在一個地下海洋。1990年代,伽利略號(Galileo)太空船提供了更多證據。最近的觀測進一步強化了歐羅巴假設的地下海洋可能擁有適合生物活動的條件的觀點。這些發現使歐羅巴成為天體生物學探索的主要目標,NASA的歐羅巴夾擊者任務(Europa Clipper mission)被指定用來調查歐羅巴的宜居性。這本開放存取的專題集是該任務科學目標、實現這些目標所使用的儀器、攜帶和操作有效載荷的太空船,以及整體任務設計的主要參考資料。
本書是關於歐羅巴夾擊者任務的兩卷系列中的一部分,包含有關該任務科學和儀器的研究文章。
