Io, Europa, Ganymede and Callisto are the four satellites that orbit Jupiter.
No planet has 4 moons. (planets as far as in our solar system)
Galileo discovered them. Their names are: Io, Callista, Europa and Ganymede. He discovered them in January 1610. == ==Galileo Galilei in 1610.
The four largest moons of Jupiter are called the Galilean moons: Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto. They were discovered by Galileo Galilei in 1610 and are some of the largest objects in the solar system, with Ganymede being the largest moon in the entire solar system.
Europa is one of Jupiter's moons. Actally theres Europa, Callisto, Ganymade, and Io. :] Ganymede, Io, Europa and Callisto Jupiter has 67 moons, of which four are major. Those moons are Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto.
The four brightest moons of Jupiter are Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto. These moons are known as the Galilean moons and were discovered by Galileo Galilei in 1610. They are among the largest moons in the solar system and are easily visible from Earth with binoculars or a small telescope.
Yes. That is why they are called the Galilean Moons
Galileo discovered Jupiter's 4 largest moons, the Galilean moons. The largest moon's name is Ganymede.
Galileo was the first to observe the 4 largest moons of Jupiter (which are still known as the Galilean moons, in his honor).
A Galilean satellite is one of the four largest moons of Jupiter discovered by Galileo Galilei in 1610. These moons are Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto. They are also known as the Galilean moons and are some of the largest and most geologically diverse moons in our solar system.
Ganymede. It is in the group of moons called the Galilean satellites, Jupiter's 4 largest moons. The others in that group are Io, Callisto and Europa
Galileo was the first to look at the planet Jupiter through a telescope, and to observe the moons of Jupiter (the 4 largest moons are still known as the Galilean moons).
In the year 1610.
No planet has 4 moons. (planets as far as in our solar system)
Jupiter's largest four moons, called the Galilean satellites because Galileo was the first person to see them, are Europa, Io, Callisto and Ganymede.
Galileo discovered them. Their names are: Io, Callista, Europa and Ganymede. He discovered them in January 1610. == ==Galileo Galilei in 1610.
The biggest planet is Jupiter. It has the 4, large Galilean moons but also other smaller moons.
Galileo Galilei of Italy invented it in 1610. Shortly thereafter he discovered the craters and mountains of the moon, the 4 largest moons of Jupiter (still called the "Galilean moons"), and the rings of Saturn.
