\abstract{
We have detected \SOtwo\ in ultraviolet spectra of Callisto obtained
with the Hubble Space Telescope's Faint Object Spectrograph. An
absorption band centered at 280~nm appears in the spectrum of
Callisto's leading hemisphere, but is not apparent in the spectrum
of the trailing hemisphere. The band is similar to the \SOtwo\ band
on Europa's trailing hemisphere. Callisto's leading hemisphere
spectrum can be well fit with models that include \SOtwo\ ice
absorption with N(\SOtwo )$ \ge 6 \x 10^{16}$ \sqcm. Callisto's
leading hemisphere is modified by impacts with micrometeorites; this
may directly or indirectly be a source of sulfur dioxide.}
