Jupiter's 4 major moons, known as the Galilean satellites, are named Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto. Io is an orange moon with an abundance of volcanic activity most likely caused by Jupiter's magnetic field. Europa is a cold, frozen ice moon and is also the smallest of the four. Ganymede is the largest and also is thought to have oceans. Callisto is the outermost moon (of the 4) and is covered with craters.
