Description
Ελληνικά: Η Καλλιστώ, ο δεύτερος μεγαλύτερος δορυφόρος του Δία, φωτογραφημένη από τη διαστημοσυσκευή Voyager 1 στις 6 Μαρτίου 1979. Μωσαϊκό εικόνων που πάρθηκαν από απόσταση περίπου 400.000 χιλιομέτρων.
English: Callisto, second largest moon of Jupiter, as imaged by Voyager 1 on March 6, 1979. Mosaic of images taken at a distance of about 400.000 km.

Original caption

Callisto was revealed by the Voyager cameras to be a heavily cratered and hence geologically inactive world. This mosaic of Voyager 1 images, obtained on March 6 from a distance of about 400,000 kilometers, shows surface detail as small as 10 kilometers across. The prominent old impact feature Valhalla has a central bright spot about 600 kilometers across, probably representing the original impact basin. The concentric bright rings extend outward about 1500 kilometers from the impact center.
