The supermoon may look especially large to you, however, if it's very close to the horizon. But that has nothing to do with astronomy and everything to do with how the human brain works. This effect is called the "moon illusion" and may arise from at least a couple of different thin...
On Europa, it may live off geothermal heat, or even Jupiter's radiation fields for energy, and simple organic molecules for food. But we're getting beyond Europa Clipper's remit, which is to confirm whether the environment on the moon is compatible with these theories. A major bonus would...
