Inclination reference: ecliptic. Mean-element epoch: 2000-01-01.5 TDB · JUP347.
Diameters use volume-equivalent mean radii, including for irregular bodies. Mean orbital elements describe an orbit; they are not live positions. Missing physical measurements remain unavailable.
Missions in the Jupiter system · 24 records
9 launches · 15 linked events
These records cover the planetary system. A system mission did not necessarily visit this moon. Dedicated targets are marked separately; programme events include the journey and briefings. Launch outcomes do not establish arrival, landing success or present spacecraft operation.
