The mission will investigate the potential for life at the icy moon of Jupiter.
Argentina and Chile will see the ‘ring’, but other regions will see a partial eclipse.
Parts of South America, the Pacific and Antarctica are under the path of an annular eclipse.
CubeSats have already visited the Moon and Mars and are key components of upcoming deep space missions.
Most planets that have the potential to host life have one side always facing their sun.
The new study seems to confirm that molten magma covered the Moon’s surface shortly after its formation.
The far side of the Moon has a very different composition from the near side − so researchers are eager to see what stories these samples will tell.
