Fun fact: Io, Europa, and Ganymede are in 1:2:4 orbital resonance. Meaning for every time Ganymede orbits, Europa orbits twice, and Io orbits 4 times. But their pattern is such that there's never a triple conjunction (they never all line up on the same side of Jupiter, instead there can only be two of them at conjunction and the other at opposition).
Josh Bobst Perhaps Lunaroids? Seeing as how they're "moon like". But I guess luna is too specific? Asteroons is interesting, but Asteroid means "star-like", so Asteroon is gibberish, AFAIK. Good try, though, man.
Jupiter is considered by some to be a system in it's own right, and as you said in a previous episode it emits heat. When you combine that with the friction from tidal forces on Europa by the other moons, it wouldn't too much of a stretch to say that the Jupiter System has it's own habitable zone.
liampgc as funny as that is, it's probably a no, it would probably the far-less-cool Europans or Europese Actually, can we start calling Europeans Europese?
Jake Long Yes, he´s actually my neighbour here in Vienna. I greet him once in a while, but the only thing he does is stretching his right arm in the air back at me, it´s weird.
Michael Kilduff I am there right now and I can tell you that there isn't much more alien life here than anywhere else on the planet, just some occasional UFO but that is basically it:P
Ganymede is one of my favourite astral bodies. I love the little unique story behind Ganymede as a mythological character too. The aurora light effects on the poles are gorgeous. Europa is extremely interesting with its layers of ice and water and I can't wait for more information on that moon. The movie Europa was really interesting. Thanks for making these videos!

sheepwshotguns Scrap the human spaceflight program and you can have a comprehensive Europa mission within a couple years. Somehow humanity is fixed at sending warm mushy living tissues into hard vacuum.
sheepwshotguns Well under 90km of water, I'm not sure we could capture any visible light. And I think bacterial life doesn't emit much infrared light. So you would basically have a black screen...
This episode, particularly the section about Europa is the reason I tune in to this show. I've been so curious about Planets (or in this case Moons) we believe have the conditions for living organisms. I don't remember ever being this interested in learning when I was in school. Loving this series so far, thanks for keeping it interesting!!!
Phil, Crash Course Astronomy is amazing. Your depths of knowledge and your didactic skills make this show so much fun to watch. Please keep it up, love it!
Thank you very much for making this video. Phil Plait and the others at _CrashCourse_ Astronomy! It was really interesting to learn about the moons of Jupiter. Jupiter - the gorilla in the Solar system, the giant that is really hostile to live but has moons that are promising in the search for life on other worlds. Go Europa! I can’t wait for next episode, where we will learn about Titan and Enceladus! By the way, I live in Europe and this also seams life can exist here to. ☺
I hope you can go into the fact that 3 of the moons are in an orbital resonance. That concept is actually very important in astronomy and can create some wacky scenarios.
CrashCourse guy. In one of your next classes, please explain the physical-chemical origins of gravity, so important to all of us in the Universe. Love your classes. Thank you.
Here's my metric for "Is it a moon or not:" If I (an average human) can stand on the body, jump as hard as i can, but still be brought back down to the surface by gravity, it's a moon. If I can escape the body on leg power alone, it's a satellite.
+rlrsk8r1 by your definition, earth is a moon, revolving around the sun (which is also a moon revolving around the center of the Milky way). Your definition needs more specifications.
I wonder if a moon can have a natural satelite on it's own. Now I know it may sound crazy, but I see no reason why it would be impossible. (Arent there are like stable orbit zones around all celestial objects? Langrange points, maybe? I dont know)
Dávid Abonyi I think the problem would be that the moons are already so close to a large planet, that the "moon's moon" would likely get thrown off balance by the planet and fall down to it. I suppose it's technically possible though, if everything lines up just right.
Dávid Abonyi *cough* we're about to have a revolu-ception here *clears throat* an small asteroid rotating around a large asteroid rotating around a moon rotating around a planet rotating around a sun
The video definitely shows the improvements that had been made by man in terms of astronomy. The aesthetics of the video were really fantastic since not only it is fun, but it also greatly helps in the understanding of the topic. They weren't all over the place and it gives the vibe of a conducive learning environment. Also, the interrelationships of the four moons and Jupiter were highly emphasized; it makes learning easier for the viewers. An example of it is: the sulfur-rich material being ejected because of the activity with the other moons which is tidal flexing which heats its interior through friction. It's also great that the video also put emphasis in Europa's comparability to Earth. The existence of carbon-based molecules and salt supports it. The possibility of the spawning of life in Europa is probably a staggering discovery for mankind since it helps in the innovation of astronomical research
the way he describes the sky of the moon closest to jupiter... things like that are the reason I seek out for videos like this.... incredible.... keeps the curiosity juice flowing... its things like this from which science fiction is born... such a huge mass on the sky wow.... they should send a probe just to observe from the sky from that moon :P ....
It's rediculous how much I love this series. I was going to observe Saturn today but the damn clouds came before I could get home and get my telescope out.
The names of the Galilean moons (Io, Europa, Ganymede and Callisto) were given by Simon Marius. There is some contention as to who "discovered" the moons initially, with the satellites ultimately being named after Galileo, yet the names for them came from Marius. Love these videos!
If we were to count tennis ball sized rocks Moons, then I bet the Earth has more than one moon. And many of them would be very fascinating since they are made with a very strange mix of materials that looks way to complicated to be natural. oh and they communicates with your smartphone.
why should we call our moon THE Moon? at least for long? We should find some way to distinguish in from the rest, someday, if Humans colonize other planets. We need to distinguish between each moon. Even humans on other planets someday would call their moons THE MOONS or the moon. We could nickname our moon "Luna" to distinguish it
99batran . I think that the moon (our moon) is technically called Luna. At least in every video game I have played that involves space travel and exploration, the name of the celestial body that orbits Earth is Luna (although, video games are not an offical source for information).
West Kagle The sun, moon, and our planet have no set name. Sure, we've all seen the names of Sol, Luna, and Terra, but they are just popular names. Every language calls them something different.
99batran We do distinguish it. Our moon is named Moon. Admittedly that's a little like naming your dog Dog, but it works well enough. I second "Luna" though, which, like nicknaming Dog Canis, isn't' really any different, but it does sound a bit better.
99batran Our moon is actually called Luna (which is Latin for moon but still...) just like our sun isn't called The Sun its called Sol. This is where you get Lunar and Solar from.
Maybe you are speaking of "tidal locking"? like our own moon is tidally locked to the Earth. One side of our moon faces the Earth all the time, the other side doesn't, gravity pulls on the side facing us more than the side that doesn't.
I wonder what Galaleo's reaction would be in his time if we talked to him about this. He'd either be crazy excited or think we were getting way ahead of ourselves.
On the Expanse, a character says he's gonna hide the ship "behind one of Jupiter's 71 cute little moons" while the rest of the crew went down to Ganymede. Keeping in mind it takes place two centuries (at least) into the future. I do know that at least one new one has been discovered since this video was created.
Fantastic summary! I'd never want to live forever, but I'd love to be able to somehow "return" and check out the Universe and humans at points in the future. If I could return in a hundred or more years when we hopefully send craft to Europa, I'd love to be able to "return" just to find out what humanity learns from exploring the oceans of Europa. It could be nothing but a frigid lifeless ocean, but it could hold life....
There's a huge number of maybes for life on Europa. The one that strikes me as most important is how stable the ecosystem is over billions of years. Stuff is crashing into Jupiter, hitting moons on the way in. Radiation could be a source of life energy, but also could sterilize anything not tolerant of it. It would be very cool to be piloting a camera underwater there and suddenly stumble upon a weird skeleton or something, though.
Crash Course, do you still take questions? I've read that Jupiter radiated a lot more heat early in its life, but I've never been able to ascertain how much. Do you know warm Jupiter was after its birth, and was it warm enough to liquidate its moons?
Like a black hole devouring stars im devouring all this awesome info much love and respect and appreciation for the education of this vast vast universe

thanks for the knowledge im a student of English literature but i had a strong attraction to study astronomy but fate brought me here im hoping one day my child will study astronomy
I've always been fascinated by the solar system, but there have been high points in my education of it. One of those was discovering an Atlas of the planets in my local library. Until then I had no idea we had such detailed and informative photographs and diagrams of our neighboring worlds. I still collect these kinds of images on my computer today. The other high point was learning more about the various moons of the gas giants. It was like discovering a whole set of new worlds, with each gas giant taking the role of a miniature star with its own dominion of miniature planets.
Tidal heating on Io and Europa comes mainly from Jupiter gravity, not the moons. Orbital resonance just works to stabilize ther eccentricity, which is nessesary for any tidal flexing to occur. And the magnetic field on Callisto is only induced, not independent.
Fun fact: Io, Europa, and Ganymede are in 1:2:4 orbital resonance. Meaning for every time Ganymede orbits, Europa orbits twice, and Io orbits 4 times. But their pattern is such that there's never a triple conjunction (they never all line up on the same side of Jupiter, instead there can only be two of them at conjunction and the other at opposition).
I think we should call moons that are too small to be round, like small asteroids, asteroons.
Josh Bobst NASA, hire this man.
Or like someone said in these comments 'dwarf moon' as the concept of dwarf planets already exits!
Aww, thanks, you guys.
Josh Bobst A+ nomenclature. Your ideas are intriguing to me and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.
-Nicole
Josh Bobst Perhaps Lunaroids? Seeing as how they're "moon like". But I guess luna is too specific?
Asteroons is interesting, but Asteroid means "star-like", so Asteroon is gibberish, AFAIK.

"But that was no moon" I thought we discovered the death star for a second.
If there's life on Europa, does that make them Europeans?
liampgc as funny as that is, it's probably a no, it would probably the far-less-cool Europans or Europese
Actually, can we start calling Europeans Europese?
liampgc I don't know about that, but if there are ever permanent residents on our own moon, they'd be called "Lunatics"
liampgc haha 😂
peas?
schmittelt I think they where called Selenites.
I'm looking forward to more astronomy videos. A LOT MORE! A LOT!

Living in Germany, I can assure you: There is life in Europa.
Thank you, I'm here all week.
Grillpanzer I too am from Europa, can confirm.
Living in Switzerland, I can assure you: there is no intelligent life in Europa.
Jake Long Yes, he´s actually my neighbour here in Vienna. I greet him once in a while, but the only thing he does is stretching his right arm in the air back at me, it´s weird.
Grillpanzer France is, hear all, weak.
Grillpanzer I thought that was Europia! (I have been saying that for years!)
To all space programs, one of you better get to Europa before I die so I can know whether or not there is alien life. Please and thank you!
Michael Kilduff I am there right now and I can tell you that there isn't much more alien life here than anywhere else on the planet, just some occasional UFO but that is basically it:P
Michael Kilduff "Humans" here can breath underwater too!
Michael Kilduff i'll tell you
no
Likely miscroscopic organisms or small creatures, I’d be more hyped for Ganymede, that’s a place we should go first
Ganymede is one of my favourite astral bodies. I love the little unique story behind Ganymede as a mythological character too. The aurora light effects on the poles are gorgeous.
Europa is extremely interesting with its layers of ice and water and I can't wait for more information on that moon. The movie Europa was really interesting.
Thanks for making these videos!

I would also define a moon as an object in a stable orbit around a planet as defined by the IAU.
That definition is very vague considering that different people have different muscular strength in their legs.
No it isn't. If *I* can jump as hard as I can. Not *a person* can jump as hard as they can.
The Garden of Eatin But how many newtons of force can his legs exert then?
Beautiful episode! So glad I stumbled upon CrashCourse!
Excellent explanation!👏
i was very excited for this episode! Jupiter's moons are the most interesting part of our solar system besides earth in my opinion.

rebelyell1983x Well , he didn't
Why would they make an episode on an orange dog?
It's rediculous how much I love this series. I was going to observe Saturn today but the damn clouds came before I could get home and get my telescope out.
Ridiculously informative. This is more information than I have read in all of my astronomy books
The names of the Galilean moons (Io, Europa, Ganymede and Callisto) were given by Simon Marius. There is some contention as to who "discovered" the moons initially, with the satellites ultimately being named after Galileo, yet the names for them came from Marius. Love these videos!

Learning so much from this series, hope it lasts a long time!
I loved this video! My favorite moon is Callisto, I did a project on it in 5th grade.

yeah ik Luna also means moon, but what else that's sounds just as cool?
great episode! please do the same for saturn's moons after a full episode about saturn!
I always love listening about Europa moon XD
best teacher.
I was taught that Io gets flexed because it’s closer and farther part from Jupiter get attracted differently.
Maybe you are speaking of "tidal locking"? like our own moon is tidally locked to the Earth. One side of our moon faces the Earth all the time, the other side doesn't, gravity pulls on the side facing us more than the side that doesn't.
The information is great. I have to pause it and really absorb it , bit by bit ... this is great .
Well now I'm interested in planets.

If we found life on Europa, will they be called Europeans?
when i see crash course astronomy or sci show space in my feed i get butterflies in my tummy, yes that is indeed how nerdy i am.
I don't know why, but for a long time I have been seeing more potential in Jupiter's moons to form platform for human habitat than Mars.
waiting on Neptune. :)
In waiting for... URANUS LOOOOOL
Saturn's moon is more interesting to me
"but there's Europa, all wet"
The possibility of water is amazing
I love that every time I watch one of these, my jaw drops at least twice.
Life on earth is all built off of water, can it not be possible for life to build off another liquid? Or is that just incomprehensible to us?
I recommend you to read about Saturn's moon Titan. You'll be amazed!
Gabriel Angelos Listen to the part at 7:42. That refers to what you said. Forms of life that might be based on other things, than water and carbon.
It's possible, Saturn's moon Titan is the most likely candidate in our solar system for methane and amonia based organisms.
Imagine how expensive would be sashimi prepared with fish from Europa!
Thanks so much for a great series! Keep the videos coming. :)
I wonder what Galaleo's reaction would be in his time if we talked to him about this. He'd either be crazy excited or think we were getting way ahead of ourselves.
io looks like moldy cheese
"immediate concerns" I KNEW SPACE PIRATES WERE REAL!!!
On the Expanse, a character says he's gonna hide the ship "behind one of Jupiter's 71 cute little moons" while the rest of the crew went down to Ganymede. Keeping in mind it takes place two centuries (at least) into the future. I do know that at least one new one has been discovered since this video was created.

What if there is an hyper intelligent race of octopuses living under the surface of Europa? Could be right?
Jupiter OP plz nerf.
Jordan Etherington it's Diana from league of legends wet dream to live in Jupiter

I am impressed.the four moons circling Jupiter.
