Callisto is the outermost of the four Galilean moons of Jupiter. It orbits at a distance of approximately 1,880,000 km (26.3 times the 71,492 km radius of Jupiter itself). [3] This is significantly larger than the orbital radius—1,070,000 km—of the next-closest Galilean satellite, Ganymede.
Callisto (Jupiter IV) is the fourth and last Galilean moon, and is the second-largest of the four, and at 4820.6 kilometers in diameter, it is the third largest moon in the Solar System, and barely smaller than Mercury, though only a third of the latter's mass.
Valhalla is the largest multi-ring basin on Callisto and in the Solar System (with diameter up to 3,800 km). [4] It was discovered by the Voyager probes in 1979–80 and is located on the leading hemisphere of Callisto, in its Jupiter facing quadrant slightly to the north of the equator (at about 18°N latitude and 57°W longitude).
