Jovian Europa Orbiter

Jovian Europa Orbiter

The Jovian Europa Orbiter (JEO) is a future mission by the European Space Agency to Jupiter's moon Europa. [ [http://sci.esa.int/science-e/www/object/index.cfm?fobjectid=35982 ESA Science & Technology: Jovian Minisat Explorer ] ] JEO would be capable of collecting information about Europa by orbiting it, and would correspond with the Jovian Relay Spacecraft (JRS) and the Jovian Minisat Explorer (JME).

Its launch has not been scheduled, and it is still in the planning stages within the ESA's "Technology Reference Studies". The JEO is not to be confused with the Europa Orbiter, a NASA mission to Europa which was canceled.
