Nasa spacecraft blasts off to hunt alien life on a distant moon | BBC News


Nasa’s Europa Clipper spacecraft that will hunt for signs of alien life on one of Jupiter’s icy moons has blasted off from Florida, US.

Nasa launched the spacecraft at 12:06 local time after hurricane Milton forced the mission to postpone plans last week.

Europa Clipper will now travel 1.8 billion miles to reach Europa, a deeply mysterious moon orbiting Jupiter.

It will not arrive until 2030 but what it finds could change what we know about life in our solar system.
