Mars was named after the Roman god of war. Venus was named after the Roman goddess of love and beauty. Mercury was named after the messenger of the gods. Finally, Uranus was named after the Roman god of heavens.

Answer: Ganymede

Among Jupiter's more than 60 confirmed moons, the largest is Ganymede. Ganymede, Io, Europa, and Callisto are known as the Galilean moons. They were called the Galilean moons because they were the only moons Galileo Galilei saw.
