Europa Clipper, an imposing NASA probe, lifted off from the U.S. Kennedy Space Center on Monday, bound for an icy moon of Jupiter to discover whether it has the ingredients to support life.

Lift-off took place with SpaceX's powerful Falcon Heavy rocket. The probe is set to reach Europa, one of Jupiter's many moons, in five and a half years.
