The first observation of the #JovianMoons was on #ThisDayInHistory in 1610. #GalileoGalilei used his custom telescope and first saw the larger #Ganymede & #Callisto, with the smaller #Io & #Europa sighted the following night. These observations proved the #Copernican solar model.

A black and white image depicting a solar eclipse of the sun by Jupiter, as observed from the Galileo spacecraft. The faint rings of Jupiter, comprised of dust particles from meteoroid impacts on nearby moons, are visible as thin arcs of light against the dark background. The image highlights the thin, delicate nature of Jupiter's ring system.
