The US National Aeronautics and Space Administration (Nasa) has reported that the main body of its largest ever planetary space probe, the Europa Clipper, had been delivered to its Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) in southern California. The main body was assembled by the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory in the US State of Maryland and flown to JPL, on the other side of the country. “It’s an exciting time for the whole project team and a huge milestone,” enthused Nasa JPL Europa Clipper project manager Jordan Evans. “This delivery brings us one step closer to launch and the Europa Clipper science investigation.”
