Dr Anezina Solomonidou of the Hellenic Space Center led an international team that found four depressions on Ganymede that may be ice volcanoes, where water-rich material once erupted. Juice’s MAJIS spectrometer and JANUS camera will check them after 2031. Our take: this week’s Earth flyby brought Juice a step closer to the targets Greek scientists chose.
