For decades, an icy moon of Jupiter has been considered one of the most promising places to search for extraterrestrial life in the solar system. As early as midday Monday, NASA plans to launch a new robotic mission to Jupiter. Dubbed Europa Clipper, the probe is the largest spacecraft it has ever built for a planetary science mission. Assuming the launch does not face any further delays, Europa Clipper is scheduled to lift off at 12:06 p.m. A mosaic image of Jupiter's moon Europa, obtained by the camera onboard NASA's Galileo spacecraft on Nov. 25, 1999.
