Europa - Jupiter’s Icy Moon with Subsurface Ocean | Space Exploration Guide #3547841 (License: Personal Use)

This artistic rendering depicts Europa, one of Jupiter’s largest moons, showcasing its heavily fractured, water-ice crust dotted with impact craters and linear grooves. The subtle shading and texture suggest geological activity driven by tidal forces from Jupiter, potentially sustaining a liquid ocean beneath the surface. Bright spots and lineaments indicate recent resurfacing events and possible plume activity.

Used on astronomy, space science, or NASA mission pages to illustrate Europa’s geology and astrobiological potential; aligns with user intent to learn about icy moons, ocean worlds, or upcoming missions like ESA’s JUICE or NASA’s Europa Clipper.
