Europa Clipper launched Monday at 12:06 p.m. ET from NASA ’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida .
The long-anticipated liftoff was delayed by Hurricane Milton .
The spacecraft has entered orbit and mission control is communicating with the spacecraft.
The $5.2 billion mission began as a concept in 2013 , but the road to launch has been without challenges.
Europa Clipper isn’t designed to search for evidence of life on Europa , but it will use an array of instruments to see whether life could be possible within an ocean on another planet in our solar system.
The mission will investigate the exact thickness of the ice shell that encases the moon and how that frozen exterior interacts with the ocean beneath it.
