COSMIC MESSAGE
This 3D view of Jupiter's moon Ganymede was generated using data from NASA's Galileo spacecraft. By combining images from different angles, scientists reconstructed a section of Ganymede's surface in 3D. The result shows furrows, craters, and hills in the region known as 'Galileo Regio' with high resolution.
