Europa Jupiter System Mission (EJSM-Laplace) Jupiter Europa Orbiter →

Jupiter Ganymede Orbiter (JGO) was a part of the internationalEuropa Jupiter System Mission (EJSM).^[3] It was a proposedorbiter by the ESA slated for lift-off in 2020.^[1] Plans for the mission include detailed studies of Jupiter's moons,Ganymede andCallisto, as well as the Jovianmagnetosphere.

It was superseded by theJupiter Icy Moons Explorer in April 2012.^[4]
