The Paris Observatory partner of the Jupiter evening at the Cité de l’Espace

Various activities are projected, in the presence of members of the science team of the current Juno mission (NASA) and of the upcoming JUICE mission (ESA).

Either physically present, or via videoconference, various scientists will explain for the general public the steps involved in this space mission which will reach Jupiter on July 5th at about 5h35 (French time).

Note the participation from 20h30 to 22h of Philippe Zarka, CNRS research director at the Paris Observatory in the "Laboratoire d’études spatiales et d’instrumentation en astrophysique" (LESIA) and co-investigator in the Juno mission.

Philippe Zarka will talk about the part played by the Paris Observatory, which coordinates the world-wide ground based radio observations backing up the Juno space mission.
