Description
Galileo’s scientific investigations will concentrate on Jupiter’s atmosphere, magnetosphere, and satellites. The spacecraft’s telescopes will improve on the best resolution obtained by Voyager by a factor of hundreds, and on the original observations of Jupiter and its satellites made by Galileo Galilei by a factor of as much as one million.
