What spacecraft has been to Callisto?
The Pioneer 10 and Pioneer 11 probes (early 1970s) were carried out a flyby of Jupiter and in doing so contributed only a small amount to what was known about Callisto from Earth-based observations. The Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 flybys in 1979 provided detailed images of Callisto's surface and also measured its temperature, mass and shape. The Galileo spacecraft made several close passes over the moon, with one 2001 going down as close as 138 km from Callisto's surface. In 2001, the Cassini spacecraft, on its way to Saturn, took some infra-red images of Callisto. Most recently, the New Horizons probe, on its way to Pluto collected images of Callisto.
When was Callisto discovered in?
Moon Callisto, the second largest moon of planet Jupiter and the third largest moon in the solar system was discovered in year 1610 by Galileo Galilei. It was easy to see, being so large. Callisto is made of about half ice and half rock, and seems to have no geology. Its surface is one of the oldest in the solar system.
What is surface area and how you can decrease or increase surface area?
You can increase surface area by spreading the object
What is callisto's position in the solar system?
The position of the moon Callisto is its one of Jupiter moon and its next to Jupiter
Why does crushing a solid increase the speed at which the solid dissolves?
ALL reactions (apart from Nuclear) take place on the surface. By crushing the solid you are increasing the surface area and also the SA/Volume ratio. This increased surface area increases the area available for the dissolution reaction.
What are the features of Callisto?
Callisto is heavily cratered and has a water ice surface
How old is callisto?
Callisto's surface age is 4 billion years old.
Does s callisto have water on the surface?
no
What is the surface of callisto?
ice water
Is Callisto's surface icy?
Yes
Is there volcanic activity on Callisto?
The surface of Callisto is heavily cratered and extremely old. It does not show any sign of volcanic activity.
What is the terrain on Callisto?
heavily cratered, water ice surface
What is land that looks like the moon?
Surface of MercurySurface of GanymedeSurface of Callisto
How old is the surface of callisto?
Older than 4 billion years
Which moon would look the brightest from the surface of Jupiter out of lo Europa Ganymede and Callisto?
Lo would look the brightest from the surface of Jupiter as it is the closest! Then Europa then Ganymede and finally Callisto I got that homework the other day
The order of brightness for each moon from Jupiter's surface?
lo europe ganymede callisto
Is there gravity on Ganymede and Callisto?
Yes. All major bodies in the solar system have noticeable gravity. Ganymede and Callisto have surface gravities of 14% and 12% of Earth's gravity respectively.
