    This is happening monday, June 7.

    Lots of newer instruments on board.

    I didn't know Ganymede has a magnetic field, the only moon to have one.
    That alone will be something to figure out how that happens on that lone moon.

    thanks for the link. I've heard our solar system's moons are more likely to have life, than the planets.

    The deal there is those moons have buried oceans of liquid water, miles deep, more than on the entire Earth. So that is why they say life is more possible there.

    How deep you want to go into that?

    This would be a good starting point:
