Europa

Card 1 of 2

A Moon of Jupiter

The image shows a view of Europa, one of Jupiter's moons. It is a spherical celestial body with a rough, textured surface. The surface is predominantly covered in reddish-brown streaks and patches, interspersed with lighter areas that appear icy blue and white. These features create a complex, cracked appearance reminiscent of a frozen ocean. The reddish-brown lines suggest a network of ridges and fractures, while the white regions are likely ice deposits. The overall color palette includes earthy browns, icy blues, and bright whites.

Subsurface Reservoir     175💧

Deep beneath Europa’s icy shell may be a layer of liquid water.

Gravity

Europa’s gravity is 0.13 times the gravity of Earth.

Composition

Rock & Ice

The image illustrates a cross-section of Europa, one of Jupiter's moons. The top layer displays a textured, brown and white icy surface, characterized by jagged patterns and a rough texture. Below this layer, a blue subsurface ocean is depicted, suggesting the presence of liquid water under the ice. The ocean appears deep with slight gradient variations, moving from lighter to darker blue tones. At the bottom, a rocky seabed is shown, colored in dark gray and brown hues.
