Clearest images yet of Europa and Ganymede from Earth

Astronomers have revealed the most stunning and detailed images of two of Jupiter’s largest moons ever obtained from the surface of Earth.

The images show the icy surfaces and details of the processes that shape the chemical composition of Europa and Ganymede, two of Jupiter‘s four Galilean moons, which are named after the astronomer who first observed them. And scientists hope that the new images, captured by the Very Large Telescope (VLT) in Chile, will lay the groundwork for future space missions focused on these worlds.
