■Nasa’s website is accepting names to be included in the Jupiter Satellite Exploration ■We are accepting names from people around the world when sending the Mars Rover and Lunar Orbital Shuttle.■Europa Clipper is expected to confirm the existence of life on Jupiter’s satellite. The last remaining blue ocean of space. The United States, Russia, China, and India have awakened to the value of space early on and are pioneering space. Our country is now jumping into space development in earnest. We try to tell the story of the unknown universe, its vast and gigantic world, in a fun way so that everyone, from children to adults, can easily understand it. If you apply by writing down your name on the ‘Message in a Bottle’ event page on NASA’s website, you can download an image with your name written on it, like this photo. When humans first stepped on the moon in 1969, around the 2000s I thought we might go on a school trip to the moon. But going outside the Earth, that is, into space, is easier said than done. Currently, it is said that even civilians can travel to space, but because the cost is astronomical, only a few people can enjoy it. Anyone who looks at the night sky and space may think that they want to travel there, but the reality is that it is still difficult to implement. However, even though we cannot travel to space right now, there is an opportunity to send my name to space. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is planning to launch the Jupiter icy satellite probe ‘Europa Clipper’ with the goal of October 2024. As part of the event commemorating A tribute poem by poet laureate Ada Limon will be placed on a microchip and sent to the rover. The deadline to apply for ‘Message in a Bottle’ is the 31st of this month. If you go to the event website and enter your name and email address, you can download an image with your name engraved on a scroll of paper in the shape of a cork bottle with images of Europa and Jupiter in the background. There is an imaginary drawing of the ‘Europa Clipper’ exploring Jupiter’s moon Europa. Photo provided by NASA Limon, who was awarded the title of 24th Poet Laureate by the U.S. Library of Congress last year, wrote a poem titled ‘In Praise of Mystery: A Poem for Europa’ for this expedition. The goal of Europa Clipper is to determine whether life exists in the ocean presumed to lie beneath the ice layer of Jupiter’s moon Europa. Europa Clipper is the first time that NASA is sending a probe solely for satellite exploration rather than a planet. Previously, NASA held an event to send the names of applicants for the launch of the Mars Rover Perseverance in 2020 and the Lunar Orbital Shuttle Spacecraft Artemis 1 in 2022. We have issued virtual boarding passes. 10,932,295 people submitted their names to Perseverance and 3,391,122 people submitted their names to Artemis 1. NASA said, “This message-in-a-bottle event is in line with the tradition of sending messages to spacecraft exploring the solar system and beyond. “Like the Golden Record of Voyager (1977), which sent a time capsule containing sounds and images to promote the diversity of life and culture on Earth, we aim to stimulate the imagination of everyone around the world,” he said. .Europa Clipper is currently being manufactured at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL). This probe, which will be launched from the Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida, USA, is scheduled to fly 2.6 billion km and arrive in Jupiter’s orbit in 2030. Afterwards, the probe will orbit Jupiter and fly by Europa regarding 50 times, including approaching 25 km of Europa. . During the exploration flight, a variety of scientific instruments will be used to collect data on Europa’s ice layer, its underlying ocean, and its atmosphere. The surface of Jupiter’s moon Europa. Photo provided by NASA Europa, one of Jupiter’s satellites, has a total diameter of 3122 km, making it the smallest of the Galilean satellites (Jupiter’s four major satellites discovered by Galileo Galilei: Ganymede, Io, Europa, and Callisto). Europa is located far from the Sun. The average temperature is -171.15 degrees Celsius, the highest temperature is -148 degrees Celsius, and the lowest temperature is -223 degrees Celsius. Europa, which has an icy surface, has long been a subject of interest to space scientists, and has recently received more attention. This is because there is a high possibility that there is life on this moon. Astronomers estimate that Europa has a liquid subterranean ocean tens of kilometers deep, more than twice the size of Earth’s oceans, beneath a 15 to 20 kilometers layer of ice. If life is discovered, Earth will no longer be a lonely planet in the universe.
