European Space Agency to explore Jupiter's moons (+video)
The ESA has given the go-ahead for a solar-powered space probe that will examine the icy Jovian moons of Ganymede and Europa, along with Jupiter's upper atmosphere.?
The European Space Agency has given the go-ahead for an exciting mission to explore the icy moons of Jupiter, as well as the giant planet itself.
Skip to next paragraph This movie shows Ganymede, Jupiter's largest moon, as it ducks behind the giant planet. Astronomers combined a series of images taken with the Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 aboard NASA's Hubble Space Telescope to make the 18-second movie. The 540 movie frames were created from Hubble images taken over a two-hour period on April 9, 2007.credit: NASA, ESA, E. Karkoschka (University of Arizona), and G. Bacon (STScI)
JUICE???JUpiter?ICy moons?Explorer ? will consist of a solar-powered spacecraft that will spend 3.5 years within the Jovian system, investigating Ganymede, Europa and the upper atmosphere of Jupiter. Anticipated to launch in June 2022, JUICE would arrive at Jupiter in early 2030.
As its name implies, JUICE?s main targets are Jupiter?s largest icy moons ? Ganymede and Europa ? which are thought to have liquid oceans concealed beneath their frozen surfaces.
The largest moon in the Solar System, Ganymede is also thought to have a molten iron core generating a magnetic field much like Earth?s. The internal heat from this core may help keep Ganymede?s underground ocean liquid, but the dynamics of how it all works are not quite understood.
JUICE will also study the ice-coated Europa, whose cueball-smooth surface lined with cracks and jumbled mounds of frozen material seem to be sure indicators of a subsurface ocean, although how deep and how extensive is might be are still unknown ? not to mention its composition and whether or not it could be hospitable to life.
?JUICE will give us better insight into how gas giants and their orbiting worlds form, and their potential for hosting life,? said Professor Alvaro Gim?nez Ca?ete, ESA?s Director of Science and Robotic Exploration.
The JUICE spacecraft was originally supposed to join a NASA mission dedicated to the investigation of Europa, but NASA deemed their proposed mission too costly and it was cancelled. According to Robert Pappalardo, study scientist for the Europa mission based at JPL,?NASA may still supply some instruments for the spacecraft ?assuming that the funding situation in the United States can bear it.?
JUICE will also capture images of Jupiter?s moon Callisto and search for aurorae in the gas giant?s upper atmosphere, as well as measure the planet?s powerful magnetic field. Once arriving in 2030, it will spend at least three years exploring the Jovian worlds.

Justin Timberlake On 'NSYNC Days: 'I Looked Like A Moron'
With singer opening up to Details about his boy-band fashion mistakes, MTV News rounds up his most regrettable looks.

Justin Timberlake definitely looks very different now than he did back in his 'NSYNC days. Back then, his style mostly consisted of ill-fitting leather jackets, baggy trousers and that famous head of unkempt blond curls.
Those clothes and even that fro were definitely the "in" things. It was the late 1990s and early 2000s, so that meant neon tracksuits, sunglasses with rose-colored lenses and loose-cut JNCO jeans were all the rage. Therefore, we're thinking that Justin should probably go a little easier on himself when reflecting on the fashion risks he took back in the day.
But in a new interview with Details magazine, Timberlake revealed his true feelings about some of his cringe-worthy looks. "There were many moments in my teenage years where I succumbed to, um, the weirdness of the group I was in. And in trying to conform — we're marionettes! — I ended up looking like a moron."
Things began to take a turn for the better after he shaved off his curls. "A shaved head. It's scary the first time you do it, because you don't know what's under there — you could have some weird knot — but a shaved head is just so easy," he said.
Check out photos of Justin Timberlake's Questionable Fashion Choices
While Timberlake may not like to think about the past, MTV News is looking back on some of Timberlake's most questionable 'NYSNC looks.
1999 Billboard Music Awards At the show, his sunglasses had purple lenses, he was rocking a major medallion on his chain and every guy in the band had some version of an all-black leather suit with a racer stripe on it. For the record, Timberlake's was right across his chest.
1999 American Music Awards Nothing says "I'm attending a major awards show" more than a casual gray mock turtleneck, a blinging chain and a shiny turquoise raincoat with drawstring waist, right?
2000 Puppet Unveiling Going for a casual, cool look at the unveiling of the band's No Strings Attached-inspired puppets, Timberlake's gray and blue baseball T-shirt was perfectly accessorized by that giant out-of-hand 'fro atop his head. While Timberlake later shaved it off, the puppet is stuck with that look for all of eternity.
2000 Wango Tango Concert Cornrows and aviators with red lenses? We assume no further explanation is needed.
2001 American Music Awards A denim suit and cowboy hat was made even better thanks to Britney Spears' matching strapless denim gown. It was baffling at a time when perplexing style was all the rage. To be a fly on the wall as a stylist convinced two of the biggest pop stars in the world to wear those outfits!
Voting in the Final Four of MTV's Battle of the Boy Bands runs until noon ET on Friday, May 4. Winners are determined by fan votes, so if your favorite band made the cut, make sure you keep voting.

Demi Moore Unveils New Twitter Handle
She didn't take the advice of THG readers, but Demi Moore has selected a new Twitter handle.
After stating a couple weeks ago that she was finally moving on from @Mrskutcher - we don't need to explain why, do we? - the actress debuted the chosen moniker yesterday.
"So hard finding a name that was fun somewhat playful and available," Moore wrote. "So for now it will be @justdemi It could grow on me! Thanks everyone for your help in finding my new name!"
The person behind Demi's need to change the handle, meanwhile, finds himself in trouble these days.
Thanks to this Ashton Kutcher Popchips ad, Moore's ex-husband is facing accusations of racism. And thanks to his role on Two and a Half Men, further allegations of not being remotely funny.

'Fifty Shades of Grey': Experts Cast Christian Grey
Robert Pattinson, Ian Somerhalder, Ryan Gosling are fan favorites to play the dark and mysterious character in E L James' novel.

People just can't stop talking about "Fifty Shades of Grey." E L James has set the literary world on fire with as erotic novel that explores the relationship between a dark and mysterious guy named Christian Grey and Anastasia Steele, an innocent college graduate.
The guilty-pleasure book features characters that James created in her "Twilight" fan fiction, and it's now being made into a feature film. That, of course, has had Hollywood buzzing with casting rumors about who could play the role of Christian Grey.
Fans of the trilogy already have strong opinions about the part, so MTV News caught up with some experts for their take.
"Christian definitely needs to be clean-cut, but extremely sexy when disheveled," Alison Genet of Twifans.com told MTV News. "I wouldn't choose a man that is overly chiseled. No juicehead gorillas need apply. Hair that can be neatly brushed, but when playing, it's loose and wild like Johnny Depp hair. Not super short."
Of course, the physical look of the actor has to fit, but Christian is also a complex individual, and most fans want an actor who can pull off all his many dimensions.
"I just think that the actor needs to be able to portray being so intense," Mags Vazquez from , "But also showing that vulnerability that he has in reality."
Casting rumors for the part of Christian have been heating up as of late, with names like "Twilight's" own Robert Pattinson coming up. So, do fans want to see Pattinson make the transition from Edward Cullen to Christian Grey?
"There's the side that first fell in love with the characters as part of 'Twilight' fan fiction and can only see Robert Pattinson as Christian and/or Kristen Stewart as Ana," Lisa Parker from FiftyShadesFilm.com explained. "Would we be disappointed if he/she/they were cast? Absolutely not."
Others disagree, however. "In regards to Robert Pattinson, I would like to see them move away from 'Twilight' so it can get its own identity," Crissy Maier of Laters, Baby! said.
Well, if Pattinson doesn't land the role, there's a chance another vampire could step in: "Vampire Diaries" star Ian Somerhalder.
"I think Ian seems like a good fit visually, I haven't watched 'Vampire Diaries,' but what I hear about his acting skills there, I'm hearing good things," Maier said.
Parker agreed, revealing that her readers have been backing Somerhalder since he expressed interest in the role during an interview with Ryan Seacrest.
"We're excited to see actors step up and say they would be interested in playing the leading man," Parker said, adding, "With Ian Somerhalder being the first and a popular candidate judging from our Twitter timeline."
These super fans have suggestions of their own though, ranging from Matt Bomer to "Man of Steel" star Henry Cavill. Not surprisingly, Ryan Gosling is also a favorite.
"We are fans of the love story too, so we know exactly what qualities 'FSOG' fans see in different actors and actresses that make them appealing for the roles," Parker said. "Have you seen the Dunhill London ads featuring Henry Cavill? Do they not scream 'Fifty'? Have you seen Ryan Gosling's GQ photo shoot? Grey silk tie anyone?"
Genet of Twifanscom agreed, saying Gosling's undeniable charm could make him the perfect Christian Grey: "Ryan Gosling, Ryan Gosling, and Ryan Gosling. Imaging him in jeans hung low on the hip."
"The one thing we know for sure is that with E L James as a collaborative partner in the casting process, we are confident that she will do what's in the best interest of her famously loved characters." Parker said.
Who do you think should play Christian Grey in the "Fifty Shades of Grey" movie? Let us know in the comments!

FCC to dole out up to $300 million to help carriers expand service in rural areas
It seems like almost every day that we receive a press release announcing Verizon or AT&T is planning to expand its LTE coverage to three, five, eleven new markets. But in some remote pockets of the country, you'd be lucky to latch onto even a solid 3G signal. In a bid to make sure those folks in the boonies get their due, the Federal Communications Commission is establishing a fund to encourage carriers to roll out 3G and 4G service in sparser areas. All told, the agency plans to award up to $300 million to mobile operators, with funds going to the providers offering the lowest rates. The winners will be decided in a sealed, single-round auction, which opens June 27th and is set to close July 11th. As a condition for receiving the funds, carriers must agree to cover at least 75 percent of the road miles within a given census tract. While it's unclear at this early stage which mobile players will take the bait, the FCC's already signaled which parts of the country will be first in line for upgraded service -- namely, Rocky Mountain states like Utah and Idaho, along with Maine, Appalachia and upstate New York.

BlackBerry 10 dev alpha unit unveiled: 4.2-inch screen, 1280 x 768 resolution
Sometimes a picture is worth a thousand words. In this instance, it just leaves us wanting more. The image you see above is RIM's official dev unit for its just launched BlackBerry 10 platform. If it looks familiar, that's because you've seen it not too long ago when leaks of the much anticipated device began to hit the world wide rumor-mongering web. Waterloo's still keeping us in the dark as to the glorified guts this austere fella's packing, but it did confirm these alpha units will feature a jaw-dropping 4.2-inch, 1280 x 768 display that bests the 720p panels found on other similarly-sized handsets -- there's no word yet on if it's PenTile, though it likely doesn't matter much at that resolution. We've also learned the device sports 16GB internal storage and 1GB of RAM. No, this isn't your mother's BlackBerry and for good reason too, as the beleaguered mobile titan's got quite a bit of its continued prosperity riding on this QNX-based slab. Wondering where its QWERTY cousin is? We are too, but without any official announcements, you'll just have to stay tuned to see what fruits this week's BlackBerry World will bear.

Weekend warriors: Marloes Coenen stars at Invicta FC?s first event
At Invicta's first event, former Strikeforce bantamweight champ Marloes Coenen took a 30-26 on all cards' decision over Romy Russyen. Afterwards, she called out current Strikeforce champ Ronda Rousey. Jessica Penne won by a third-round TKO, and Liz Carmouche got a quick TKO over Ashleigh Curry. Olympic bronze medalist wrestler Randi Miller took a decision with plenty of ground and pound, and Sarah Schneider won with a first-round armbar.
Rousey was also a key piece of Friday's "The Ultimate Fighter," stopping by Team Cruz's practice to show the team some judo moves. She also stuck around to watch UFC 145 with them, but they were spooked by the mere appearance of a woman in their home.
In Friday's bout, Chris Saunders outlasted a tight bout with Sam Sicilia, giving the two-round decision to Team Faber. Dana White said afterwards he was surprised the bout did not go to a third-round. In Friday's final quarterfinal bout, Andy Ogle will take on Mike Rio.
