[image]Concentric Rings Surrounding Valhalla - NASA
The concentric rings surrounding Valhalla are perhaps the most distinctive geological feature on Callisto. This Voyager 1 close-up shows a segment of the ridged terrain. The presence of superimpact craters shows that the rings formed early in Callisto's history; however, the density of craters is less here than on other parts of the satellite, where the surface is older.

[image]Callisto Mosaic - NASA
Callisto was revealed by the Voyager cameras to be a heavily cratered and hence geologically inactive world. This mosaic of Voyager 1 images, obtained on March 6 from a distance of about 400,000 kilometers, shows surface detail as small as 10 kilometers across. The prominent old impact feature Valhalla has a central bright spot about 600 kilometers across, probably representing the original impact basin...

It was taken from a range of 312,000 kilometers (195,000 miles), and it shows features down to about 5 to 6 kilometers across. Clear examples of several of the different types of terras in common on Ganymede s surface are visible (right)..

[image]Hubble Photo Gallery of Jupiter's Galilean Satellites - *Credit:* K. Noll (STScI [ http://www.stsci.edu/ ]), J. Spencer (Lowell Observatory), and NASA [ http://www.nasa.gov/ ]
*Description*: This is a Hubble Space Telescope "family portrait" of the four largest moons of Jupiter, first observed by the Italian scientist Galileo Galilei nearly four centuries ago. Located approximately one-half billion miles away, the moons are so small that, in visible light, they appear as fuzzy disks in the largest ground-based telescopes. Hubble can resolve surface details seen previously only by the Voyager spacecraft in the early 1980s...

Voyager 1 image of Jupiter's moon Callisto from a distance of 350,000 km. Callisto is about 4,800 km in diameter (about the size of Mercury). Features as small as 7 km across can be seen in this image. The large "bulls-eye" at the top of the image is believed to be an impact basin formed early in Callisto's history. The bright center of the basin is about 600 km across and the outer ring is about 2600 km across...

[image]Europa During Voyager 2 Closest Approach - NASA
This color image of the Jovian moon Europa was acquired by Voyager 2 during its close encounter on Monday morning, July 9. Europa, the size of our moon, is thought to have a crust of ice perhaps 100 kilometers thick which overlies the silicate crust. The complex array of streaks indicate that the crust has been fractured and filled by materials from the interior. The lack of relief, any visible mountains or craters, on its bright limb is consistent with a thick ice crust...

[image]Craters near the south pole of Callisto - NASA
This image of the south polar region of the Jovian satellite Callisto was taken in twilight by the Galileo spacecraft on its eighth orbit around Jupiter. Craters ranging in size from 60 kilometers (36 miles) down to the limit of resolution are visible in this image. Scientists count the number of craters on a planetary surface to estimate its relative (and sometimes absolute) age. Note that many of the craters are not as sharp in appearance as the two large craters near the bottom of the image...

The first close look ever obtained of Jupiter's satellite, Europa, was taken today, July 9, by Voyager 2 as the spacecraft approached the planet. The linear crack-like features had been seen from a much greater distance last March by Voyager 1. This picture was made at a range of 246,000 kilometers (152,000 miles) and provides a resolution of about four kilometers (2.5 miles). The complicated linear features appear even more like cracks or huge fractures in these images...

The highest-resolution views ever obtained of any of Jupiter's moons, taken by NASA's Galileo spacecraft in May 2001, reveal numerous bright, sharp knobs covering a portion of Jupiter's moon Callisto. The knobby terrain seen throughout the top inset is unlike any seen before on Jupiter's moons. The spires are very icy but also contain some darker dust. As the ice erodes, the dark material apparently slides down and collects in low-lying areas...
