Episode Description from the Publisher

Join Felix and Anish as they dive into the largest moon in our solar system: Ganymede, and one of the most scientifically engrossing targets for space exploration. They look into Ganymede's strong magnetic field, what its icy surface and mysterious ridges have revealed about its past, and examine the intriguing possibility of an ocean hidden beneath miles of ice that could support life. From scientific breakthroughs made by the Galileo spacecraft to exciting goals of missions like JUICE, they will go over how researchers are pushing the boundary to comprehend this enigmatic world, and why Ganymede is one of the most promising candidates in the search for extraterrestrial life.
