[漢羅] 加利略四大衛星 ê 木衛二 Europa

咱若是來看 1990 年代後半木星系統 ê 資料，就會發現 加利略太空船 有記錄著 木衛二 Europa 足精彩 ê 影像。 這粒衛星 ê 表面冰層下底有一重足深 ê 全球性海洋。 這張加利略四大衛星 ê 木衛二 Europa ê 影像資料已經 重新處理過。 這擺有改善資料校正 ê 方式，才有法度產生彩色影像。 按呢產生 ê 色彩 kah 咱目睭看著 ê 較 相-siâng。 木衛二 Europa 表面足長 ê 彎曲痕跡，暗示講遐有地下水。 這粒木星上大粒 ê 衛星，踅木星 ê 長株圓軌道 leh 行。 伊面頂 ê 潮汐作用提供能量，予伊 ê 海洋保持液體 ê 形態。 毋閣閣較 趣味 ê 是，就算是無太陽光，伊嘛是會當提供支持性命 ê 能量。 所以 木衛二 Europa 就變做是 地球 以外上有可能有性命 ê 所在。 目前 tī 木星軌道頂懸行 ê Juno 太空船，已經 ùi 這个有水 ê 世界頂懸 飛過幾若擺，kā 影像 kah Europa 是毋是適合生物徛起 ê 資料送轉來地球。 今年 10 月，NASA 就會發射 Europa 快船，開始 探索 這个有水 ê 世界矣。 太空船會飛過 Europa 50 擺，沓沓仔倚近 伊 ê 冰質地表 25 公里懸 ê 所在。

[English] Galileo's Europa

Looping through the Jovian system in the late 1990s, the Galileo spacecraft recorded stunning views of Europa and uncovered evidence that the moon's icy surface likely hides a deep, global ocean. Galileo's Europa image data has been remastered here, with improved calibrations to produce a color image approximating what the human eye might see. Europa's long curving fractures hint at the subsurface liquid water. The tidal flexing the large moon experiences in its elliptical orbit around Jupiter supplies the energy to keep the ocean liquid. But more tantalizing is the possibility that even in the absence of sunlight that process could also supply the energy to support life, making Europa one of the best places to look for life beyond Earth. The Juno spacecraft currently in Jovian orbit has also made repeated flybys of the water world, returning images along with data exploring Europa's habitability. This October will see the launch of the NASA's Europa Clipper on a voyage of exploration. The spacecraft will make nearly 50 flybys, approaching to within 25 kilometers of Europa's icy surface.
