☄️ Our #ESAJuice team couldn't wait until February, when they will receive data on #3IATLAS from the mission's science instruments.
So they downloaded just a quarter of an image from its navigation camera to get a surprise sneak preview.

I’ve known I wanted to work in aerospace since I was 10. My mom brought me home an art kit that let you draw aircraft. Then in high school, I started drawing spacecraft blueprints, coming up with designs and layouts. Astronaut Andrew Allen spoke at my high school & I knew where I wanted to work.
