A shift in priorities to manned missions in 2005 led NASA to cancel the JIMO probe whose primary mission was to explore this body. It is one of only six moons in the solar system to have an atmosphere (*), and that atmosphere is composed of oxygen generated from sunlight. Its thick ice surface is very young, and the lack of craters and major mountains makes it the smoothest object in the solar system.
