The 2009-10 mission takes OCESS to three of the moons of Jupiter: Europa, Ganymede, and Io. The Habitat will be passing near Io to collect samples of volcanic dust ejected by tectonic activity on the moon's surface, landing on Ganymede to set up Terraforming equipment, and spending the rest of the mission on Europa. An unmanned submersible is currently under construction, explore the liquid water ocean and rocky planetary core beneath Europa's surface.
