Open catalogue update: Tidewatch Europa Orbiter

Today's catalogue spotlight is Tidewatch Europa Orbiter, a satellite. Its operational setting is Europa polar orbit, 200 km.

It provides Ice shell thickness maps, Plume detection alerts and Tidal flexing measurements, licensed under CC-BY-4.0 so you can reuse them in commercial and research projects alike.

Everything is published at https://git.halcyon.example/tidewatch-europa. Halcyon engineers review community submissions every week.

We think open infrastructure makes the whole system safer to fly through, and Tidewatch Europa Orbiter is a good example of that.
