'''Amalthea (Jupiter V)''' is an inner irregular [[natural satellites|moon]] of [[Jupiter]], measuring 250 km across and is noted for its red color. Amalthea was discovered by [[w:Edward Emerson Barnard|E E Bernard]] on 9 September 1892, named after a nymph in Greek mythology. This was the last moon to be discovered by direct observation. All others after were discovered photographically or digital imaging.

== Amalthea in Orbiter ==
Amalthea was introduced to [[Orbiter]] with the add-on ''jupiter_i.zip'' released in October 2002.
