JUICE/MAJIS

JUICE - JUpiter ICy moons Explorer - is the first Class L mission in ESA's Cosmic Vision program. The launch is scheduled for September 2022 with an arrival at Jupiter in July 2031. The main objectives of the satellite will be to perform detailed observations of the giant planet Jupiter and three of its largest moons, Ganymede, Europa and Callisto. We are in charge of the development of the MAJIS visible and near infrared spectro-imager which is part of the JUICE payload (http://sci.esa.int/juice/50073-science-payload/). Delivery of the instrument is scheduled for 2021.
