Jupiter has 95 known moons and many moonlets, which are believed to have been created as the CPD coalesced and broke apart. But how that process came about and evolved is still mostly a mystery.
Jupiter has four large moons – Io, Europa, Ganymede and Callisto – with diameters of more than 3000 kilometres. However, as of April 2023, we know it is also home to 91 additional small satellites.
