Colonization of the outer Solar System of the four Galilean moons. Despite this, its volcanoes could be energy resources for the other moons, better to colonize. The Artemis Project proposed a plan to colonize Europa. Scientists would inhabit igloos and drill down into the Europan ice crust, exploring any subsurface ocean. The report also discusses use of air pockets for human habitation. Ganymede is the largest moon in the Solar System. Ganymede is the only moon with a magnetosphere, but it is overshadowed by Jupiter's magnetic field. Ganymede receives about 8 rem of radiation per day. Due to its distance from Jupiter's powerful radiation belt, Callisto
Small Solar System body with the exception of the dwarf planets Pluto, Haumea, Makemake, Eris, and others that may turn out to be dwarf planets. It is not presently clear whether a lower size bound will be established as part of the definition of small Solar System bodies in the future, or if it will encompass all material down to the level of meteoroids, the smallest macroscopic bodies in orbit around the Sun. (On a microscopic level there are even smaller objects such as interplanetary dust, particles of solar wind and free particles of hydrogen.) Except for the largest, which are in hydrostatic equilibrium,
