@NASAPersevere Alas, orbital mechanics waits for no robot…

Thanks for the assist, @NASAMars!

[Jordan Evans @Jordan2Mars]

@SDSU Congratulations @sdsu - You all continue to make this #Aztecforlife so proud! A tremendous, caring faculty and an administration/leadership team that wants the best for the students, faculty, and staff. 🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀

[Dr. Cynthia Phillips @PlanetCynthia]

Applications are now open for the Europa ICONS paid summer internship! If you are an undergrad interested in the @EuropaClipper mission, work with a science team member at locations around the US. Includes stipend plus housing / travel. Visit https://t.co/AVNorTEKZA for info!

At last report, the Europa Clipper spacecraft is power positive, thermally stable, dynamically stable, and traveling at astonishing speed. And so are you – don't let anyone tell you different! You got this. #MondayMotivation

[Jordan Evans @Jordan2Mars]

We have a very healthy and well-behaved spacecraft. And 79,200 mph relative to the sun is pretty darn fast, thanks to our @NASA_LSP @SpaceX Falcon Heavy launch! The team continues to Work tirelessly to checkout all of Europa Clipper’s systems. 🚀

This story is really beginning to unfold: While zooming through space at 22 miles per second (35 kilometers per second), our spacecraft has deployed its solar arrays, magnetometer boom, and now the antennas for its ice-penetrating radar instrument https://t.co/s4x0eJs0JS

@moogega @shekarchian @NASA @NASAJPL @SpaceX Congratulations @moogega and @shekarchian - Wow! A @EuropaClipper engagement! Fantastic! I guess that ring is considered an “Install Before Flight” item (green tag)?!?!?! 🚀 💍 Cheers!

[Jordan Evans @Jordan2Mars]

Quite a week at @NASAKennedy working with @NASA_LSP and @SpaceX - The integrated team is keeping us on track for the launch of @EuropaClipper 🚀 Fantastic work by everyone! One step closer to unlocking the secrets of the ocean world, Europa!

[ARCHIVED: NASA LSP @NASA_LSP]

🤩 One last look at #EuropaClipper as the payload fairings close!

The spacecraft will be on a nearly 6-year journey to investigate if there are habitable conditions on Jupiter’s moon Europa. Liftoff is targeted for Oct. 10 on a SpaceX Falcon Heavy!🚀

[Jordan Evans @Jordan2Mars]

We are getting so close to the launch of @EuropaClipper and my fellow @SDSU friends/roommates and I recorded a song to celebrate! 🚀 Music is a great stress relief and balance to the challenges of helping to develop a mission like #EuropaClipper

[Jordan Evans @Jordan2Mars]

I’m so proud of this team and their methodical approach to solving seemingly insurmountable problems. Thank you @dwbwriter for sharing their story. It certainly was quite a summer!
Go @EuropaClipper 🚀

[Jordan Evans @Jordan2Mars]

Join us tomorrow to hear the latest mission status and to learn more about the amazing amazing science of @EuropaClipper 🚀

[ARCHIVED - NASA Europa Clipper @EuropaClipper]

Join NASA leaders and members of our team tomorrow for a preview of our mission to Jupiter's intriguing moon Europa and the October launch.

I know what I’m doing this morning while drinking my cup of coffee…

[ARCHIVED - NASA Europa Clipper @EuropaClipper]

Can't wait for the launch? Trust us, we know how you feel. Here's one cool thing to tide you over until October: the Europa Clipper AR experience. Turn your mobile device into a virtual window into both the moon and our spacecraft! https://t.co/7EbOIevHcE

[Jordan Evans @Jordan2Mars]

@librarycongress @LibnOfCongress Carla Hayden is a brilliant and amazing leader. She’s also a TOTAL ROCK STAR! I had the pleasure of meeting her when “In Praise of Mystery: A Poem for Europa” was read in public for the first time. I agree that Dr. Hayden is “just plain cool!” 🚀

[Jordan Evans @Jordan2Mars]

First we counted in years until launch. Then months. Then weeks. Now we are 27 days from the opening of the @EuropaClipper launch period. The journey to create this amazing machine ends and, in 27 days, the journey through space to unlock the mysteries of Europa begins! 🚀

[NASA @NASA]

In less than a month, the journey begins.

@EuropaClipper is a mission crafted with one overarching goal: determine if Jupiter’s icy moon, Europa, has conditions suitable for life.

#EuropaClipper’s launch window opens on Oct. 10. Dive in: https://t.co/eX4ZYUn03w

[Jordan Evans @Jordan2Mars]

Achieving today’s milestone is the work of many hands, across many organizations, giving of themselves. Thank you #TeamEuropaClipper for your diligence and focus as we prepare for the upcoming launch. 🚀 #DareMightyThingsTogether

[ARCHIVED - NASA Europa Clipper @EuropaClipper]

That's a go: Today our mission passed a standard planning milestone known as Key Decision Point E. We're now approved to proceed toward a launch period that opens Thursday, Oct. 10.  https://t.co/P0GBjZIrnW

[Jordan Evans @Jordan2Mars]

An update on the amazing work of the @EuropaClipper team is coming this Monday! Onward! 🚀

[NASA Space Operations @NASASpaceOps]

.@NASA will hold a media teleconference at 4 p.m. EDT, Monday, Sept. 9, to provide an update on Europa Clipper, a mission that will study whether Jupiter’s moon Europa could be hospitable to life. The teleconference will occur after a key decision point meeting earlier that day regarding next steps for the mission.

Audio of the teleconference will stream live on the agency’s website at: https://t.co/MVlqblZcrR

Wow! I think @Europarider puns are rubbing off on the entire @EuropaClipper team! 😂🤣😂🤣

I’m so excited these resources are available! 🚀🚀🚀🚀

How do you organize a NASA launch watch party?
You planet! 🍿🚀🥳

Teachers - find resources for hosting a classroom watch party of our October launch:

[Jordan Evans @Jordan2Mars]

I’m so proud of the work of this team! We remain on track for launch and I look forward to the remaining reviews and decision points leading up to our launch! 🚀 #DareMightyThingsTogether

[ARCHIVED - NASA Europa Clipper @EuropaClipper]

Our mission to explore Jupiter's moon Europa remains on track, with a launch period opening on Oct. 10. We recently conducted extensive testing of our spacecraft's transistors, and results suggest they're ready to support our baseline mission. https://t.co/M4hClJroBB

@rover_18 @EuropaClipper @NASAKennedy And congratulations and sincere thanks to you, Ryan, for all of your contributions to @EuropaClipper 🚀

[Jordan Evans @Jordan2Mars]

It’s been quite a while since I’ve posted. I guess I’ve been busy with the amazing @EuropaClipper project! Check out what we’ve been up to…

It’s so thrilling to see it all come together and to see the incredible team @NASAJPL @JHUAPL and @NASA_LSP bring this all together! 🚀

[ARCHIVED - NASA Europa Clipper @EuropaClipper]

A real power move! ⚡️ Here's a look at engineers and technicians at @NASAKennedy deploying the first of two massive solar arrays that will provide electricity for our spacecraft at Jupiter – which is more than five times as far from the Sun as Earth.

[ARCHIVED - NASA Europa Clipper @EuropaClipper]

Your package is out for delivery. 📦🚀

Our spacecraft recently traveled from @NASAJPL to @NASAKennedy ahead of the October launch. But moving a 7,000-pound spacecraft across the country is a whole process. Let our lead engineer walk you through it, step by step.
