📢 #ESAJuice carries out the largest & most important manoeuvre in its eight-year journey to #Jupiter.
Using its main engine, Juice changed its orbit around the Sun to put itself on the correct trajectory for next summer’s Earth-Moon double gravity assist – the first of its kind. Details 👇
.@ESA_Juice has just used up ~10% of its entire fuel supply in only 43 minutes in the largest engine burn that it will carry out between launch in 2023 and arrival at #Jupiter in 2031.

Could #space-based solar power become a vital part of the world’s transition away from fossil fuels to #GreenEnergy?
Yes, say scientists, if substantial cost and technological challenges are overcome.
