JUICE Sets Up a Close Look at Jupiter’s Tiny Moon Kallichore
Key Takeaways
- Researchers used Hubble and the Gran Telescopio de Canarias to refine Kallichore’s size and orbit.
- Kallichore is about 3.8 kilometers wide and has a very low albedo of roughly 3.7 percent.
- The updated orbit reduces positional uncertainty by about 80 percent ahead of JUICE’s planned 2031 Jupiter arrival.
