Laplace-P (Russian: Лаплас — П, formerly called Europa Lander[1]) was a proposed orbiter and lander by the Russian Federal Space Agency designed to study the Jovian moon system and explore Ganymede with a lander.
Initially proposed to launch with the European Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer (JUICE) in 2022, this was later changed to an independent launch on an Angara-A5 in 2023.[1][4][5] The mission was cancelled due to a lack of funding in 2017.[6]
