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.

Those are just mind-blowing, Jason.
I never knew that there were features like that on Io...(sorry, couldn't resist! ) -------------------- A few will take this knowledge and use this power of a dream realized as a force for change, an impetus for further discovery to make less ancient dreams real.

Shamelessly stealing volcanopele's 10ISIOGLOC03 Io image and running it through CIE XYZ color calculation code based on Galileo's filter wavelengths (R 665, G 559 and V 413 nm):
It's also gamma-corrected (assuming the original composite is straight-up RGB substitution, judging by contrast and terminator line). Io's one of the few moons that doesn't really look bland this way. -------------------- |
