Editing Galilean Moons

The four '''Galilean Moons''' of [[Jupiter]] refer to the astronomer Galileo Galilei[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galileo] who is credited with identifiying them in 1610.They are by far the largest of the many moons of Jupiter. In order from closest they are [[Io]], [[Europa]], [[Ganymede]], and [[Callisto]].

There is some dispute that Galileo was the first to spot them, which is discussed at Wikipedia [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galilean_moons]

In order from closest they are [[Io]], [[Europa]], [[Ganymede]], and [[Callisto]]. Io, Europa, and Ganymede are locked into a 1:2:4 orbital resonance, Callisto is not, but, all four moons are locked into a tidal rotation, keeping the same face toward Jupiter throughout their orbits.
