[ 7 ] The four largest moons, known as the Galilean moons , are Ganymede, Callisto, Io, and Europa (in order of decreasing size), and are visible from Earth with ...

The flyby would delay the spacecraft's arrival in Jupiter orbit from August 29 to December 10, 1988, and the expenditure of propellant would reduce the number of orbits of Jupiter from eleven to ten. This was expected to add $20 to $25 million (equivalent to $50 to $62 million in 2023) to the cost of the Galileo project.
