	Universe Today - Jovian Moon Was Probably Captured
		The surface of Amalthea resembles regions of Callisto that are not covered by ice.
		This suggests that Amalthea may have been one of the many small "micro-satellites" orbiting Jupiter that was sucked into an inner orbit when the Galilean moons formed.
		However, the spectrum of Amalthea has similarities with asteroids orbiting the Sun, suggesting that is was a "micro-planet" that was pulled into Jupiter's orbit when Jupiter itself was forming.

	Amalthea (moon) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Amalthea was the last moon to be discovered by direct visual observation (as opposed to photographically), and was the first new moon of Jupiter to be discovered since Galileo Galilei discovered the Galilean moons in 1610.
		Amalthea's irregular shape and large size led to conclusion that it is a fairly strong, rigid body; if it were composed of ices or other weak materials its own gravity would have pulled it into a more spherical shape.
		The result [2] was surprising: Amalthea's overall density is close to the density of water ice, although the moon is almost certainly not a solid hunk of ice.

	Jupiter - Crystalinks
		The Ananke group is a group with rather indistinct borders, averaging 21,276,000 km from Jupiter with an average inclination of 149 degrees.
		The Carme group is a fairly distinct group that averages 23,404,000 km from Jupiter with an average inclination of 165 degrees.
		It is thought that the groups of smaller moons may each have a common origin, perhaps as a larger moon or captured body that broke up into the existing moons of each group.

		Before the discoveries of the Voyager missions, Jupiter's moons were arranged neatly into four groups of four, based on commonality of their orbital elements.
		A basic sub-division is a grouping of the eight inner regular moons, which have nearly circular orbits near the plane of Jupiter's equator and are believed to have formed with Jupiter.

	chapter 21
		Groups of secondary bodies belonging to a particular band are generally located somewhat lower if the central body is less massive, thus giving the bands a slight downward slope.
		Titan, Hyperion, and lapetus are considered as a separate group which we refer to as the "outer Saturnian satellites." The assignment of these three bodies to one group is not altogether convincing and the group is the most irregular of all with regard to the sequence of satellite orbital radii and masses.
		In this respect there is an analogy with the Galilean group in which the almost equal size of the bodies is an intermediate case between the rapid decrease in size away from the central body in the giant planets and the rapid increase in size away from the central body in the inner Saturnian system.

		Swedish/Norwegian folk group starting with vocalist Carin Kjellman and guitarist Ulf Gruvberg, who had released one album Med Rötter i Medeltiden ('With Roots In The Middle Ages') on Swedish Sonet '74.
		Kjellman's eponymous solo album on Amalthea that same year was a departure, veering away from folk towards rock, including translations into Swedish of songs by Thompson ('How I Wanted To' and 'It's Just The Motion') and Sandy Denny ('Winterwards' and 'Solo').
		Folk Och Rackare never achieved the success outside Scandinavia that their accomplished act deserved; that breakthrough was left to Fikarfolket, who became stalwarts on the international folk festival scene in the late '80s-early '90s.
