Scene №1 Cosmonautics. Ganymede: on the threshold of discovery
The Lavochkin NGO is working on the Laplace project - two devices that are planned to be sent to Jupiter in the next decade.
The main goal of the research is Ganymede, a satellite of Jupiter.
Another object of study is Mercury.
The planet is part of the so-called "terrestrial group of planets", but only the most general knowledge about it is collected.
This gap should be filled by the BepiColombo mission.
ESA, Roscosmos and JAXA are participating in the project.
Ilya Lomakin, Igor Mitrofanov, Anatoly Belov, Lev Zeleny, Oleg Korablev, Alexander Kozyrev talk about the preparation of the project.
