Only Jupiter, the Galilean moons are the four largest moons of Jupiter which Galileo discovered.The four satellites discovered by Galileo orbit Jupiter.
Galileo looked at the planet Jupiter and observed its 4 largest moons (which are still known as the Galilean moons, to this day).
The four largest moons of Jupiter are called the Galilean satellites, because they were discovered by Galileo when he first observed Jupiter with a telescope. Their names are: * Io * Europa * Callisto * Ganymede
At this moment Jupiter has 63 moons and moonlets Saturn has 60
The four satellites are Jupiter's largest moons. They were found by Galileo Galilei. They are Callisto, Europa, Ganymede and Io.

The four largest moons that orbit Jupiter are Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto. These four moons are known as the Galilean Moons, because they were the first moons discovered around Jupiter by Galileo Galilei, sometime between 1609 and 1610.

Galileo was the first to observe the 4 largest moons of Jupiter (which are still known as the Galilean moons, in his honor).
Jupiter has four of the five largest moons in the solar system including the largest, Ganymede. The second largest moon, Titan, orbits Saturn.

Jupiter has about 63 moons, but the four main moons of Jupiter are Europa, Ganymede, Callisto, and Io.
Jupiter's four largest moons are known as the Galileans. They are individually named Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto, named my Simon Marius in 1610. Ganymede is the largest of these four moons.
The moons are Ganymede, Callisto, Io, and Europa. They are called the Galilean moons because they were reportedly first observed by Galileo Galilei in 1610. These four and the largest moon of Saturn (Titan) are large enough to be visible with simple telescopes from Earth.
Jupiter has 79 known moons, with the four largest ones being Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto.
