Chief Science Officer Steve Carlson sends this composite picture from the Jet Propulsion Laboratory showing Jupiter and 4 of its moons.
Moons, from top to bottom: Io, Europa, Callisto, Ganymede
For scale, Ganymede (the largest Jovian moon) is a little smaller than the Earth, or about twice the size of our own Moon.
