SwRI’s Europa Clipper Ultraviolet Spectrograph (UVS) instrument will collect ultraviolet light to study the composition of the atmospheric gases and surface materials of Europa, one of Jupiter’s largest moons with a suspected subsurface ocean. Europa-UVS is the sixth in a series of SwRI-built ultraviolet spectrographs including two others surveying the Jupiter system.
