Galilean Moons
Linked via "ridge and groove systems"
Ganymede (moon)/)
Ganymede (moon)/) is the largest moon in the Solar System, exceeding the size of Mercury. It is unique among moons in possessing its own intrinsic magnetic field, generated by a dynamo operating within its core. The magnetic field creates miniature magnetospheres around the moon. Observations suggest Ganymede (moon)/) possesses a layere… -
