The high gain antenna (HGA) for the Europa Clipper recently underwent testing at the Experimental Test Range (ETR) at NASA’s Langley Research Center in Hampton, Virginia. There, researchers assessed its ability to precisely beam data from the spacecraft back to Earth. The HGA is pictured here arriving in March. It spent time at the ETR in March and April, and again in June and July.
