What are the main characteristics of Europa?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

One of the natural satellites of Jupiter, Europa, has double ridges all over the surface. The cause of this is because the surface of Europa is ice and the planet turns from oval to circle. A squishing kind of thing. That causes the ice to crack and the water beneath comes up and freezes because the temperature is very very cold. This repeats over and over and that causes the double ridges on its surface.

It has dark regions and that may show the areas where Europa's water and ice has a higher mineral content.

Interesting celestial object. Probably has life on it.

Asked by Wiki User

Europa's internal composition has not been directly analyzed, neither has it's surface, however using absorption lines and refraction scientists have determined that it has large amounts of O2 in it's atmosphere, if you have any other questions feel free to ask.

It should also be noted that it is hypothesised that europa has a large ocean below it's ice surface about as thick as the earth's atmosphere, and that under this there is a large mantle layer (Similar to that of earth) and an iron core.

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

There is an ocean on Europa which contains liquid water. Other than the Earth, Europa is the only place in the solar system where we have found liquid water. Life as we know it is very dependent upon liquid water, and life is believed to have originally evolved in the water, before moving to the land.

How many times a year does Jupiter orbit the sun?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Once -- that is the Jovian year.

An orbit around the sun is a "year" for whatever planet is concerned. However, Jupiter is much farther from the Sun than Earth, and takes about 11.86 Earth years to complete one orbit of the Sun -- this is about 4332 Earth days.
