JPL has focused the development of solid-state power switches to meet the challenging environmental requirements of deep space missions.
The Europa Orbiter mission, currently baselined for launch in March 2008, is intended to follow up on tantalizing results from the Gulileo spacecraft, data from which suggests that there may be a global Ocean underneath the jovian satellite Europa's water ice crust. Scientific objectives for the mission are to ascertain whether or not Europa has a liquid water ocean, to characterize ice layers beneath the surface, and to find the most scientifically enticing landing sites for future missions.
