wiki Word:   Europa

Definition: Europa is the fourth moon found from jupitar, and the sixth largest moon in our solar system.

                                                  What's More...

Europa was discovered in 1610 by the Galileo. It name comes from a Phoenician princess who was abductided by Zeus in the form of a bull, then banned to Create there she was assumed as there queen.not only does this moon have a cool name but it also  has a extremly smooth serface beacuse its atmostphere is so thick that no asteroids or comets hit is surface, they all burn up before that like ours. 

                                               So What?

Europa's surface as I said before is very smooth because of its atmosphere, like our planet.  It also has ice water on it's surface and because of the way the ice is shaped on some parts, scientists believe that it may have liquid water underneath the ice water.
