The European Space Agency’s Jupiter Icy Moons Explore (Juice) mission is set to launch on April 13 on the penultimate Ariane 5 rocket, which will begin the spacecraft’s long journey to the largest planet in our solar system to search for signs of life.

Global orbital launch activity continued to accelerate in the first quarter of 2023. For the first time in history, over 50 launches were attempted before March 31 although four of the 52 attempts were unsuccessful.
