Callisto

It’s easy to see why not much attention is paid to Callisto. For four hundred years, Callisto appeared only as the fourth dot away when gazing at Jupiter through a telescope. It also didn’t help Callisto gain attention by orbiting Jupiter. Jupiter may be one of the most intriguing objects that astronomers have yet to study. Jupiter is the king of the planets. With its complex bands and zones, Great Red Spot, and sheer size, Jupiter has captured our imaginations and has pushed us to learn and

Review of Literature I. Introduction- History of Jupiter Jupiter is the most massive planet in our solar system. The planet was named after the kings of gods in Roman mythology. In a related way, the ancient Greeks named it after Zeus, the king of the Greek pantheon. Jupiter has helped transform the way we saw the universe in 1610 when Galileo discovered Jupiter's four largest moons. This project will describe Jupiter's characteristics. Some of these characteristics include size, Great Red

Right alongside the fifth and largest planet in our solar system, Jupiter, orbits a moon only about the same size as Earth’s moon. On this moon, is an icy surface that scientists are trying to uncover. Due to the presence of what they believe to be water, there is the possibility of life on this moon named Europa. In 1609, Galileo Galilei, using “spyglass” which allowed one to see things closer than they appeared, made an early version of the telescope. With it, he observed the skies in a way no

were overcome with aching emotion when seeing a beautiful woman. In both myths, their lust is likened to a burn or fire and I believe the narrative attempts to persuade the audience to sympathize with the abuser. For instance, when Jove first spots Callisto, a “…fire ran through his marrow-bones” (Ovid, Met. II. 410). In comparison, when Tereus laid his eyes on Philomela, he “…took fire, as ripe grain burns, or dry leaves burn, or hay stored in the hay-mow…” (Ovid, Met. VI. 457-458). There is a difference

fourth myth as to how Callisto and her son Arcas were thrust up into the sky as mother and son, big and little, major and minor bear. Callisto was one of the most beautiful nymphs and though she had sworn a vow of chastity, Zeus could not resist her. After an affair with Zeus, Callisto gave birth to a beautiful son named Arcas. Arcas loved to hunt and would wander around in the woods dreaming of hunting and killing all sorts of animals. Artemis, who never forgave Callisto for destroying her virginity

In Greek mythology, the relationship between gods and humans is complicated. The gods seem to do whatever they want with humans and kind of treat them as disposable slaves, but then in some accounts, the gods treat humans as friends and offer them help. As for the humans, they should treat the gods with respect and bow down to them because they are a greater being compared to humans. However, humans are not perfect and tend to upset the gods, but it is not always intentional. The gods, on the other

The struggles of both maidens; one a mortal and the other a divine nymph are fairly similar but have subtle differences. Bothwere victims of a sexual violence committed by Jupiter;

the island of Crete to be his lover. Europa was discovered by Galileo Galilei and possibly Simon Marius in 1610 and is one of the four Galilean satellites. The others being: Io, Ganymede, and Callisto. Europa is very different from the other moons of Jupiter. Instead of a rocky, cratered surface like Callisto and Ganymede, it instead has a smooth outer surface of cracked ice. There are very few sign of craters on Europa. In fact, only three large craters have been found. This indicates that Europa's

“Listen, all you need to do is get me to Callisto, and then you can take the shuttle elsewhere,” Stylani said, getting up to turn off the screen that still had her face pasted on a screen with the words traitor, heretic, and extremely dangerous. “What’s this bunch of junk ‘posed to change?” Trynt
