摘要

The Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer (JUICE) mission selected by ESA as the first large mission within the Cosmic Vision 2015-2025 plan, is being developed to address questions regarding the Jupiter system and its satellites, with a focus on the largest moon, Ganymede. The over-arching theme for JUICE is the emergence of habitable worlds around gas giants taking into account the requirements involving the presence of organic compounds, trace elements, water, energy sources and a relative stability of the environment over time.
