Professor Andrew Dombard will join NASA’s forthcoming Europa Clipper mission as a member of the gravity/radio science team.

“The expedition, which is tentatively set to launch in the mid-2020s, will explore if there are conditions favorable for life on Jupiter’s moon, Europa, which contains a salty global ocean under its icy surface, with more liquid water than all of Earth’s oceans combined.”
