Galileo will fly by Earth at a distance of 304 kilometers (slightly over 190 miles) over the South Atlantic Ocean at 10:09 am EST Tuesday , December 8. (Yesterday's Daily News erroneously reported the flyby would occur over the Indian Ocean at slightly higher altitudes). This will be Galileo's third and final gravitational maneuver in its long trip to the first of the giant gas planets -- Jupiter. In addition to picking up the last bit of angular momentum it needs to alter its solar orbit to actually get to Jupiter, Galileo will include first-time ever polar surveys of Earth's moon. Galileo will also observe its home planet for more than a week following its flyby for scientific and calibration purposes. The JPL briefing will be shown live on NASA Select television. $@!t(J12 $@7n(J 8$@F|(J$@$H$$$&$H!"(JDiscovery $@$,(J DoD mission $@$G>e$,$C$F$k:GCf$8$c$J$$(J $@!t$G$9$+!#(J -- $@5\2<(J $@7rJe!wETAR8&$N#M#2(J.$@>pJs(J.$@4pAC9)(J.$@:eBg(J (miyasita@ics.osaka-u.ac.jp)
