NASA's 'Europa Clipper' en route to Jupiter moon
A SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket carrying NASA’s Europa Clipper spacecraft lifts off from Launch Complex 39A at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida at 12:06 p.m. EDT on Monday, Oct. 14, 2024. After launch, the spacecraft plans to fly by Mars in February 2025, then back by Earth in December 2026, using the gravity of each planet to increase its momentum. With help of these “gravity assists,” Europa Clipper will achieve the velocity needed to reach Jupiter in April 2030. (POLARIS) (FOTO:DUKAS/POLARIS) -

US space agency NASA shows off robot snake for exploring alien worlds.

See Ferrari text
Pictures must credit: NASA / JPL-Caltech
Robotic snake designed to slither around and explore hostile planetary environments is being developed by US space agency NASA.
The robust machines designed to slide down narrow vents on icy worlds, including Saturn's moons and search their subsurface oceans.
The machine is called the Exobiology Extant Life Surveyor but is known as EELS for short.
It is under development by a team of engineers from NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory based at the California Institute of Technology.
It could one day be put to work on Saturn’s icy moon Enceladus which scientists believe could contain signs of life in oceans that are thuight to be under the surface.
EELS is 4 metres long and weighs about 100 kg.
Its body is made up of 10 identical segments that rotate, using screw threads for propulsion, traction, and grip.
So far it has been tested in different environments with snow, sand, and ice and at a local indoor ice rink.
NASA engineers designed EELS to autonomously sense its environment and calculate risk, as well as recover on its own.
OPS: The EELS robot snake on test. The robot’s head containing the cameras and radar is lowered into a vertical shaft called a moulin at Athabasca Glacier in the Canadian Rockies.

The robust machines designed to slide down narrow vents on icy worlds, including Saturn's moons and search their subsurface oceans.
The machine is called the Exobiology Extant Life Surveyor but is known as EELS for short.
It is under development by a team of engineers from NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory based at the California Institute of Technology.
It could one day be put to work on Saturn’s icy moon Enceladus which scientists believe could contain signs of life in oceans that are thuight to be under the surface.
EELS is 4 metres long and weighs about 100 kg.
Its body is made up of 10 identical segments that rotate, using screw threads for propulsion, traction, and grip.
So far it has been tested in different environments with snow, sand, and ice and at a local indoor ice rink.
NASA engineers designed EELS to autonomously sense its environment and calculate risk, as well as recover on its own.
