    The methodology in this mission involved the curation of a spacecraft unlike its predecessors. The spacecraft used to carry out this mission is very unique because the craft itself and its tools for data collection are powered by solar panels as appose to the typical power system involving radioisotope decay. Where Jupiter lies relative to the Sun, it receives 25 times less sunlight than Earth receives. Given this lack of sunlight in comparison to Earth, the solar panels for the spacecraft were created

    organic coatings with a biomolecule embedded in them has shown for AP-PECVD.[51, 52] The different methods of plasma production, include microwave frequency plasma (MW), also known as glow-discharge, radio frequency (RF) plasma and arc plasma. By utilizing two electrodes in the reaction chamber, the high frequency power is applied to the gas to be ionized. When microwave frequency is used, plasma is produced by the application of a high frequency electric field of magnitude of 2.45 GHz at a low pressure
