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
