RPWI – Radio & Plasma Wave Investigation How is the UK involved? UKSA has invested approximately £9 million spanning across all UK involvement in the mission up to instrument delivery. The UK is leading the development of the magnetometer, J-MAG. The team at Imperial College London are led by Principal Investigator, Prof. Michele Dougherty. Scientific measurements from the J-MAG magnetometer will lead to an understanding of the formation of the Galilean satellites, a characterisation of their oceans and interiors, and will provide deep insight into the behaviour of rapidly rotating magneti...
Leonardo engineering robotic arms for future Mars rovers February 25, 2021 NASA’s Perseverance rover reached Mars on February 18, 2021, for the Mars Sample Return program.

This project will be completed with two other missions where Leonardo ...
