Outer Moons Of Jupiter!

Post by Wade Hampton III » Sun Jul 29, 2018 3:09 am

You might be surprised to hear that astronomers turned up even
more moons orbiting Jupiter, bringing the giant planet's total
to 79. But one was quite surprising, orbiting in the opposite
direction from all the other moons in the same region. The
discovery was made using the 4-meter telescope at the Cerro
Tololo Inter-American Observatory in Chile.
