The angular diameter of Jupiter as seen from Callisto is approximately 65 arcminutes. This means that Jupiter appears to be about 1 degree wide in the sky from Callisto, which is one of Jupiter's moons.

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.


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 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.


Listed the order of brightness for each moon as seen from Jupiter surface?

Io Europa Ganymede Callisto


What is the order of brightness of Jupiters moons from Jupiter?

The order of brightness of Jupiter's major moons from brightest to faintest is Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto. Io is the closest to Jupiter and receives more sunlight, while Callisto is the farthest and receives the least amount of sunlight, making it the dimmest of the four.


Do the sun and moon have the same angular diameter?

No, the sun and moon do not have the same angular diameter. The sun appears larger in the sky because it is much larger and closer to Earth than the moon. The sun's angular diameter is about 32 arcminutes, while the moon's angular diameter is about 31 arcminutes on average.


Do Jupiter has moons?

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


What is the angular diameter of the moon?

Well, isn't that a wonderful question! The angular diameter of the Moon can vary from around 29 to 34 arcminutes because of its elliptical orbit around Earth over time. Imagine holding a pencil at arm's length - that's like how your eyes see the Moon in the sky, changing and dancing with the night. Happy exploring!
