Laplace-P (Russian: Лаплас — П, formerly called Europa Lander[1]) was a proposed orbiter and lander by the Russian Federal Space Agency designed to study the Jovian moon system and explore Ganymede with a lander.

2013年6月19日 · PARIS — A Russian probe being designed to land on Ganymede, Jupiter's largest moon, could launch toward the gas giant with a European spacecraft being developed to explore Jupiter's icy...

2011年8月16日 · It would consist of a solar powered orbiter with 10 science instruments for remote sensing of Jupiter and its inner satellites, and for extensive studies of Ganymede to characterize its potential habitability.

2013年8月13日 · This would be the first such mission ever attempted in the outer Solar System. So far spacecraft have landed on Venus, the Moon, Mars and Saturn’s moon Titan; landing on Ganymede would be a first-of-a-kind venture...

This crew lander is designated as Lander Module 1 (LM1). This lander is designed to land on the Jovian moons Ganymede and Callisto, and can be flight tested on Earth's Moon. The LM1 utilizes only vacuum propulsive braking. The LM1 functions as lander vehicle, habitat, and rover.

Given the large number of landing sites and potential approach scenarios for the Europa Lander mission concept, it was desired to develop a practical and theoretical framework that would provide insight into the possible approach options while allowing rapid redesign of new scenarios.

The lander itself would be a stationary vehicle, touching down on a region of interest on Ganymede to perform scientific analysis. A large antenna on the top would communicate with Earth, while numerous instruments including cameras and spectrometers would analyse the surrounding area.

A Ganymede-synchronous frozen orbit around Europa provides a stable spatial geometry between a Europa probe and a Ganymede lander, which facilitates the observation of Ganymede and data ...

The paper addresses the dynamical problem and question of technical feasibility associated with delivering a simple, semi-hard lander to one of the Galilean satellites, Ganymede. Emphasis is placed on the identification of a viable, not necessarily optimal, …
