Ganymede - Voyager 2
Color image of Jupiter's moon Ganymede from 6 million km
Voyager 2 image of Jupiter's largest moon Ganymede.
This image was taken on 2 July 1979, from 6 million km,
6 days before Voyager 2's closest approach to the
satellite. The light bluish regions near the north and
south poles visible in this image, possibly result from
of water ice or frost. Ganymede is 5,300 km in diameter.
