What is the order of brightness of Jupiters moons from Jupiter?
i believe that it is Io, Europa, Ganymede then Callisto. This is in order of brightness seen from Jupiter's surface.
Listed the order of brightness for each moon as seen from Jupiter surface?
Io Europa Ganymede Callisto
Do the sun and moon have the same angular diameter?
It is true that as seen fro the earth the sun and the moon have roughly the same angular diameter. It is for that reason that total solar eclipses are so spectacular.
How many moons does Jupiter has what are there names?
Jupiter has at least 63 known moons. The largest four are called Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto. These four moonsare called the Galilean satellites because they were first seen in 1610 by the astronomer Galileo Galilei.
Which planet has the largest and smallest diameter?
Jupiter has the largest diameter of all the planets in our solar system, 142,985km at the equator (11.2 time that of earths). Some exoplanets seen in orbit around other stars (other solar systems) are considerably bigger.
Is Callisto in the Ursa major?
No. Callisto is a moon that orbits Jupiter. Jupiter can never appear in Ursa Major because that constellation is not on the ecliptic.
What is the heavenly body of Callisto?
Callisto is the furthest out of Jupiter's four large moons discovered by Galileo. It can be seen next to Jupiter with a small telescope.
What is the angular diameter of Earth as seen from the moon?
Since Earth has about 4 times the diameter of the Moon, the angular diameter of Earth, as seen from the Moon, is about 4 times larger than the angular diameter of the Moon, as seen from Earth. Since the Moon's angular diameter as seen from here is about half a degree, that would make Earth's angular diameter about 2 degrees.If you wish, you can look up more exact figures and do more precise calculations, but it is hardly worth the trouble, since there is some variation in the distance from Earth to Moon anyway.
Can callisto be seen from earth with a telescope?
Yes, all four of Jupiter's large moons can be seen with binoculars.

Jupiter has at least 63 known moons. The largest four are called Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto. These four moons are called the Galilean satellites because they were first seen in 1610 by the astronomer Galileo Galilei. Ganymede is the largest moon in the Solar System, with a diameter of 3,260 miles.
Can Callisto be seen from Earth?
With a telescope, you can see Callisto from Earth.
What are the biggest moons orbiting Jupiter?
They are called the "Galilean Moons" because they were first seen/discovered by Galileo. There are 4 of them and they are named - Io, Europa, Ganymede and Callisto.
Why does the angular diameter of the sun as seen from earth appear to be greater during our winter than summer?
earth is closer to the Sun during our winter
