The radar scattering properties of Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto are unlike those of any other object observed with planetary radars. At wavelengths of 3.5 cm and 13 cm most inner Solar System targets have low reflectivities on the order of 0.1, while the icy Galilean satellites are strongly backsc

The icy moons of Jupiter, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto, are efficient backscatterers of centimeter-wavelength radiation. At 3.5-cm and 13-cm wavelengths their specific radar cross sections can exceed unity (
