Here is a combination of all of Galileo's global color views of the Galileans. I have left out the large Europa mosaic because much of its color data is pulled from other orbits. I have also left out colorized views. Due to inconsistent filter selection, there some variation between images. I posted the Europa set in another thread, but I figured I would add the views of Ganymede and Callisto.

Amazing! I'm not geologist, but I have seen this image many times (in raw form) and now it looks really more understandable to me. Fantastic cliff!

or a slightly different take, simulating the view one might have out of a porthole on passing space cruiser . . .

and a different scene . . . this is the eroded plains shot north of the equator, for which we have no context imaging. it shows a dark smooth plataeu in the foreground and complex plains surrounding it. these palins are probably overlapping flows and erosional debris slides of some sort. -------------------- Dr. Paul Schenk, Lunar and Planetary Institute, Houston TX
