NASA's Europa Clipper spacecraft is in for a wild ride.

The launch of this mission to explore the ocean world Europa — a Jupiter moon that harbors an ocean perhaps twice the volume of all Earth's seas — was interrupted by the imposing Hurricane Milton, but its 1.8-billion-mile journey is imminent. The craft will make nearly 50 close flybys of Europa's cracked, icy shell, using a number of high-resolution cameras, a ground-penetrating radar, and even a device that will literally sample particles of Europa that have been ejected into space by tiny meteorites.

The mission will gather copious amounts of information, enough to discern whether or not Europa harbors conditions that could host life beneath its ice shell.

"It's perhaps one of the best places beyond Earth to look for life in our solar system," Cynthia Phillips, a NASA planetary geologist and project staff scientist for the space agency's Europa Clipper mission, told Mashable.

The repeated reconnaissance will require the craft to make perfectly timed loops around Jupiter as it intersects Europa's orbit, which NASA shows in the animation below.

Here's what you're watching (a short ad plays first):

- Center orange dot: Jupiter

- Blue dot: Europa

- Gray, red, and yellow dots: Respectively Jupiter's other three large moons — Io, Ganymede, and Callisto

- Magenta: That's Europa Clipper "lopping in and out," NASA explained.

There's also a timestamp on the top right showing the mission's planned flight between April and July 2032.

"The relative intensity of Jupiter's radiation bands is illustrated in this diagram," NASA explains, with darker reds depicting more radiation. Both Europa and Europa Clipper's orbits are depicted in the graphic. Credit: NASA

This looping trajectory is also designed to limit the spacecraft's exposure to extreme radiation. "The charged particle environment at Europa's location is immense," Phillips said.

That's because Jupiter, a gas giant planet 317 times more massive than Earth, generates a massive magnetic field shooting out between 600,000 to 2 million miles (1 to 3 million kilometers) toward the sun. It's created by the planet's liquid metal core, which spins and creates electrical currents (moving electric charges make magnetic fields). Crucially, this magnetic field grabs and then accelerates particles from the relentless solar wind — a stream of rapidly traveling charged particles emitted by the sun — which creates potent radiation belts around Jupiter, as depicted above.

"You get out of there."

(Decades ago, during the Voyager mission, NASA's engineers were worried about the craft passing by Jupiter. A person hypothetically riding aboard Voyager as it passed Jupiter would have gotten hit with a radiation dose 1,000 times the lethal level.)

Not all of Europa Clipper's electronics and software can be housed in a metal vault, so looping by the moon for relatively brief periods will limit impacts from charged particles, which can damage computer chips and electronics. During each orbit around Jupiter, the craft will spend under a day in an irradiated zone before swooping out. It won't return for between two to three weeks.

"You get out of there," Phillips said.

After journeying through the solar system, the craft is expected to reach Jupiter in 2030, and soon after begin its orbital dance through the Jovian system. If it appears habitable, NASA plans to return to Europa and land a robot on the icy crust. Such an endeavor would drill into the ice, looking to see if the moon is inhabited.

Mars' irradiated surface is a godforsaken place.

And yet there may be shallow pools of water near the Martian surface, a place 1,000 times drier than the driest desert on Earth. NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter — a satellite that's been orbiting Mars for nearly two decades — spotted white material lining dry gullies on Mars. The space agency, which recently released the image below, suspects it's dusty water ice that could heat up and form pools, similar to processes on our planet.

"Scientists believe dust particles within this ice act similarly to dust that falls onto glaciers on Earth, warming up in sunlight and causing subsurface pockets of meltwater to form," NASA explained.

"These pockets of water on our planet are often teeming with simple life, including algae, fungi, and cyanobacteria," the agency added. "Scientists believe similar shallow pools of water could exist on Mars, and may also be excellent places to search for life on the Red Planet today."

SEE ALSO: NASA scientist viewed first Voyager images. What he saw gave him chills.

Such glacial dust on Earthly glaciers creates phenomena called "cryoconite holes," which can cover glaciers by the hundreds or more. One is depicted in the second image below.

Although the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter wields a giant camera that can "see features as small as a kitchen table" from its orbit 155 to 196 miles above the surface in space, it can't detect any potential shallow pools. But the image clearly shows the white patches on the Mars gullies in an area called Terra Sirenum. (The blue seen at the gullies' bottom is coarse sand, a color not visible with the human eye but viewed here in infrared light wavelengths.)

There are many gullies on Mars today, but they're not created by any flowing water. Rather, planetary scientists suspect that carbon dioxide frost seasonally transitions from a solid to a gas (a process called sublimation), and provides "lubrication" for Martian soil and rocks to move downhill. Blocks of ice might even sled down the sides of Martian craters or other terrain.

Mars, which has lost most of its insulating atmosphere, can't support much liquid water on its surface anymore — but there could be bounties of water deep underground.

Planetary scientists recently used unprecedented data collected by the space agency's InSight lander, which recorded geologic activity on Mars for four years, to reveal that water may exist many miles down in the Martian crust. The research, which invites further investigation, may explain where bounties of the Red Planet's water went as the world dried up, and suggests that Mars may host hospitable environs for life.

"We identified the Martian equivalent of deep groundwater on Earth," Michael Manga, a planetary scientist at UC Berkeley who coauthored the new research, told Mashable.

For now, NASA's car-sized rovers explore the past remains of Martian lakes and rivers for past habitability and potential evidence of Martian life — if it ever existed, that is.
