Would you like to see your own space artwork on the ESA Kids site? Here's your chance! Every month ESA Kids is looking at a different theme in more detail. Themes include everything from orbits and planets to astronauts and asteroids.

This December and January, we’re challenging you to imagine and create your own Winter Wonderlands in space! Did you know some of the most interesting places in our Solar System are icy moons like Europa or Ganymede? These frozen landscapes orbit planets like Jupiter and hide incredible secrets beneath their icy crusts—oceans with more water than all of Earth’s combined! Scientists think the moons might even hold clues to life beyond Earth. 

ESA’s Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer (JUICE) is on its way to explore the mysteries of these moons up close. What do you think it might discover? 

Picture yourself with JUICE, exploring Europa’s icy cliffs, skiing across Callisto’s frozen geysers, or uncovering alien life under the frosty surface of Ganymede. Let your imagination take you to a winter holiday on Mars, with red deserts turned snowy white, or the icy ring of the Kuiper Belt, twinkling like frosty Christmas lights.
