11 hours ago · The flyby of the Moon increased Juice’s speed by 0.9 km/s relative to the Sun, guiding Juice towards Earth. The flyby of Earth reduced Juice’s speed by 4.8 km/s relative to the Sun, guiding Juice onto a new trajectory towards Venus. Overall, the lunar-Earth flyby deflected Juice by an angle of 100° compared to its pre-flyby path.

2 hours ago · The spacecraft first flew past the moon at 10.15pm UK time, increasing its speed by 0.9km/s relative to the sun to pivot towards Earth. The Earth fly-by then slowed down Juice by 4.8 km/s relative to the sun as it zoomed above South-east Asia and the Pacific Ocean, sending it towards Venus where it will perform another gravity assist next year.

11 hours ago · The first such maneuver began on August 19, 2024. It was a double maneuver. JUICE first came close to the Moon, flying only 700 kilometers from its surface. The Moon flyby increased the probe’s velocity by 0.9 km/s relative to the Sun, directing it toward Earth. Image of the Moon taken by the navigation camera of the JUICE probe. Source: ESA
