Investigating Europa (IMAGE)
Caption
A new SwRI study has raised doubts about the existence of water vapor plumes on Jupiter’s moon Europa (shown above), initially reported based on Hubble Space Telescope observations from 2012. A reanalysis of the data reduced the certainty of that initial finding, but scientists are still hopeful that such plumes will be observed at some point in the future.
