Research Project--Moons of Jupiter

Part I:

Below is a link to the moons of Jupiter.  Please review and study the information about the Moons of Jupiter (particularly the chart at the bottom of the page).

Part II:

Choose one of the named moons of Jupiter and research it more in-depth.  In your report, please include features, surface features of the moon, atmosphere, weather, dimensions, and how the moon got its name.

Part III:

Choose one of the non-named moons of Jupiter and give it your own name.  Please make sure that you include reasons as to why you named the moon this name (you might have to go into some research like you did in Part II).
