This space image could be re-created using vector graphics as an SVG file. This has several advantages; see Commons:Media for cleanup for more information. If an SVG form of this image is available, please upload it and afterwards replace this template with {{vector version available|new image name}}.


It is recommended to name the SVG file “Europa field.svg”—then the template Vector version available (or Vva) does not need the new image name parameter.

Summary

Description
Français : L'image décrit le champ magnétique autour de la lune jovienne Europe. Le champ consiste en le champ stationnaire jovien, le champ variable jovien et le champ induit par Europe. La courbure des lignes du champ autour d'Europe est évidente, prouvant l'existence d'une couche électriquement conductrice à l'intérieur de la lune. Les lignes de champs montrées sur l'image ont été calculées à partir de la littérature scientifique[1][2]. La ligne rouge situe la trajectoire de la sonde Galileo pendant un de ses passages classiques (E4 or E14). Cette image a été créée pour illustrer l'article en:Europa (moon).
English: The image depicts magnetic field around Jovian moon Europa. The field consists of the Jovian stationary field, Jovian varying field and Europa induced field. The bending of the field lines around Europa is evident, indicating an existence of an electrically conducting layer in the interior of the moon. The field lines shown in the image were calculated based on the magnetic field data available from the scientific literature.[1][2]. The red line shows a trajectory of the Galileo spacecraft during a typical flyby (E4 or E14). This image was created for the en:Europa (moon) article.
