  2. Brianna - This question isn't really related to the video subtopic they chose to cover in more detail. Can you watch their video and ask a relevant question?

  9. There may be water on Europa, but is it too cold to life? Also, how much would it cost for NASA to do the fly by?

    1. Scientists have hypothesized that Europa has liquid water underneath the icy exterior simply due to the fact that the core of Europa could be heating up the moon.

      NASA's 2016 budget allows for $255 million over the course of five years to fly by Europa.

    1. Depending on how they decided to launch the spacecraft, anywhere between 3 and 6 years. The most cost effective option is to use planets to slingshot the spacecraft into Europa, taking 6 years. A costlier but significantly faster method is to just launch it from NASA's space launch system.
