Légende

two views of Jupiter's ice-covered satellite, Europa. left image shows the approximate natural colour appearance of Europa. image on the right is a false-colour composite version combining violet, green and infrared images to enhance colour differences in the predominantly water-ice crust of Europa. Dark brown areas represent rocky material derived from the interior, implanted by impact, or from a combination of interior and exterior sources. Bright plains in the polar areas (top and bottom) are shown in tones of blue to distinguish possibly coarse-grained ice (dark blue) from fine-grained ice (light blue).
