Europa and Jupiter's Great Red Spot

This is JUST FOR FUN but I thought it'd be cool: it's a multi-composite of 1. Jupiter's Great Red Spot with the shadow of Europa imaged by NASA's Galileo spacecraft in black and white in May 2000; 2. color data of Jupiter from Cassini data acquired in December 2000; & 3. a color-comp of Europa made from Galileo data acquired in September 1997. Placement and size of Europa relative to Jupiter is purely aesthetic and arbitrary. Color saturation and contrast has been highly extended.
