The table gives the mean distance, period, and mass for the fourlargest moons of Jupiter (those discovered by Galileo in1609).
Principle Moons of JupiterMoon Mass (kg) Period
(Earth days) Mean distance
from Jupiter (km)
Io 8.9 multiplied by 1022 1.77 422 multiplied by 103
Europa 4.9 multiplied by 1022 3.55 671 multiplied by 103
Ganymede 15 multiplied by 1022 7.16 1070 multiplied by 103
