T+ 15 Days Engineering Log

[Dantassii]

Small glitch in one of the EHEs that was going to be used for MCC #2 required that we use one of the other EHEs. We will be using the next 9 days to determine if the glitch can be fixed or will permanently remove the EHE from use for the remainder of our mission.

MCC #2 was a little larger than expected at 210 m/s. MCC #3 looks to be around 500 m/s at this time. The JOI burn is still going to be a big one, but we should be able to make our meeting with Europa 1/4th of an orbit after JOI at which point we will make an Europa Orbit Insertion (EuOI) burn of about 45 seconds duration.

Except for EHE #3, all boards are green at this time. EHE #3 is Red.
