    Ganymede (moon)

    Ganymede is the largest moon in the Solar System and a satellite of Jupiter, notable for being the only moon with an intrinsic magnetic field. Observations from Voyager, Galileo, Hubble, Juno, and the James Webb Space Telescope indicate a differentiated interior, a subsurface ocean, and a tenuous atmosphere with oxygen, water vapor, and carbon dioxide.
