Summary
| Description | The conditions that NASA spacecraft endure are indeed extreme: the intense shaking of a rocket launch, the jolt of separating from the rocket, the temperature fluctuations, and—of course—the unforgiving vacuum of space. This is why, before launch, our skilled engineers meticulously replicate these harsh conditions, showcasing their expertise and the rigorous testing process. Streamed live on Wednesday, March 27 from NASA JPL's Space Simulator, where the Europa Clipper spacecraft recently completed its crucial thermal vacuum testing. Planetary Scientist Elodie Lesage and Deputy Payload Systems Engineer Annie Marinan chat through the spacecraft testing and discuss the exciting possibilities we hope to uncover when we reach Jupiter's icy moon.
