The Surface of Europa
This enhanced-color view shows a 350 by 750 kilometer swath across Jupiter's moon Europa. The image combines high-resolution data with lower resolution color data from the Galileo spacecraft in 1998. Smooth ice plains, long fractures, and jumbled blocks of chaos terrain suggest a deep ocean of salty liquid water beneath.
