Galileo Explores Europa

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

Details of the crazed cracks criss-crossing Europa's frozen surface are apparent in this mosaic of Galileo spacecraft images. Curious white stripes mark the center of the wide dark fractures. One theory suggests that 'dirty geysers' erupted along the cracks, depositing darker material. This was followed by a flow of cleaner water ice, which produced the stripe.
