No Next-Day Delivery: Shipping NASA’s Europa Clipper
How was NASA’s Europa Clipper — a 7,000-pound spacecraft — packed and shipped from the agency’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Southern California to Kennedy Space Center in Florida? Watch this video to find out. The spacecraft is expected to launch in October 2024 from Kennedy and arrive at the Jupiter system in 2030.
I understand that the Webb Space Telescope had even greater complexity and security in shipping to Fr Guyana for Launch
Regards, Wil Taylor
