Callisto's Southern Hemisphere as Viewed by NIMS & SSI

Nov. 17, 1997
Callisto's southern hemisphere was imaged by both the Near Infrared Mapping Spectrometer (NIMS) and the Solid State Imaging (SSI) instrument during NASA's Galileo's eighth orbit of Jupiter. This is a mosaic combining both views.

Callisto's southern hemisphere was "imaged" by both the Near Infrared Mapping Spectrometer (NIMS) and the Solid State Imaging (SSI) instrument during Galileo's eighth orbit of Jupiter. The data from the two instruments has been mosaiced to produce this unique view. Related releases and detailed captions are available for the NIMS andSSI products.

The Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, CA manages the Galileo mission for NASA's Office of Space Science, Washington, DC. JPL is an operating division of California Institute of Technology (Caltech).

This image and other images and data received from Galileo are posted on the World Wide Web, on the Galileo mission home page at URL http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/galileo/sepo.
