Harcke and colleagues at Stanford University. The surfaces of Europa, Ganymede and Callisto have been imaged in order to determine the surface properties and look for different radar properties of the various terrain types. These maps will be correlated with the Galileo images of the satellites.€а . ...

5 Million Miles From Io . ... Credit Copyright: Voyager Project , JPL , NASA Explanation: Twenty years ago this month, NASA's Voyager 1 spacecraft flew past Jupiter and its moons. ... Now known to be volcanic in origin , these features were then thought likely to be impact craters, commonly seen on rocky bodies throughout the Solar System . But as Voyager continued to approach Io, close-up pictures revealed a bizarre world devoid of impact craters, frequently resurfaced by volcanic activity. ...

The following images of the icy surface of Ganymede, the Solar System's largest moon, were made by the Galileo spacecraft during its ongoing mission to explore Jupiter and the Jovian system. ... This image was taken when Galileo was 7,448 kilometers (4,628 miles) away from Ganymede; north is to the top of the picture, and sunlight illuminates the surface from the lower left nearly overhead (77 degrees above the horizon). ... The image was taken June 27 at a range of 7,448 kilometers (4,628 miles). ...

... In summer 1994, the biggest news in astronomy was the collision of comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 with Jupiter. During this school year, Jupiter will charge back into the limelight with the arrival of the Galileo spacecraft (see figure 8 ). On Dec. 7, following a tortuous six-year ramble through the solar system, Galileo will begin its two-year mission studying Jupiter and its gaggle of moons. ... Besides the camera, Galileo will carry instruments capable of identifying minerals on Jupiter's moons. ...
