Callisto

The theme of the passage in Callisto retold by Thomas Bulfinch revolves around deception, betrayal, and the consequences of hubris. It portrays the tragic outcome of Callisto's relationship with Jupiter, highlighting themes of love, loyalty, and the transformative power of divine intervention.

Ganymede, Europa, and Callisto are three of Jupiter's largest moons, collectively known as the Galilean moons, named after the astronomer Galileo Galilei who discovered them in 1610. Ganymede is the largest moon in the solar system and is unique for having a magnetic field, while Europa is known for its smooth ice surface and potential subsurface ocean, making it a prime candidate for extraterrestrial life. Callisto is heavily cratered and is thought to have a subsurface ocean as well. Together, they provide valuable insights into planetary science and the potential for life beyond Earth.

A night on Callisto is 8.35 days since a full day (including night) is 16.7 Earth days long.

Yes. The Sun is expected to become a Red Giant in around 4.5 billion years' time. It will expand so that its radius may reach earth's orbit. That will cause a major upheaval in the outer Solar System which may cause Callisto to disappear. If Callisto survives these Solar changes, it will nevertheless move away from Jupiter gradually and eventually pull free to drift off into outer space.

No, nobody has been there.

Callisto - moon - was created on 1610-01-07.

A globe is a three-dimensional representation of Earth, accurately depicting its shape and features. While both a globe and Earth represent the planet's landmasses and bodies of water, the main difference is that a globe is a model made by humans, while Earth is the actual planet we live on.

water

same as earth

There is probably nothing on Callisto that we humans would recognize as food. However, all of the required building blocks of food are there; carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen, the CHON elements of life. Eventually, we will be able to synthesize food from those elements.

the mass of an object measures the amount of matter in a object.

100%.

(I'm not sure why the inspired soul who originally created this entry chose to categorize it among the moons of various planets, but that just proves my point.)

It has very few, it's surface is dominated by water ice.

It has none.

Since Callisto is Jupiter's moon, it takes approximately the same period to orbit the sun (its year) as Jupiter does. Thus a year is approx 11.86 years.

It is 15,144.4 KM

Moon Callisto, the second largest moon of planet Jupiter and the third largest moon in the solar system was discovered in year 1610 by Galileo Galilei. It was easy to see, being so large.

Callisto is made of about half ice and half rock, and seems to have no geology. Its surface is one of the oldest in the solar system.

It is rocky.

Jupiter's moon, Callisto, a large rocky/icy body, was discovered in year 1610 by Galileo Galilei.

Retrograde rotation

It is approx 73 million square kilometres.

45,400 kilograms = 100,089.9 pounds

Callisto is a moon of Jupiter so its distance from the earth is essentially the same as the distance from the earth to Jupiter. Depending on where the two planets are in their orbits, this ranges between 588 and 968 million kilometres. To convert to miles, divide by 1.6
