		The first group is comprised of the four innermost satellites—Metis, Adrastea, Amalthea, and Thebe.
		The Himalia group consists of five tightly clustered satellites with orbits outside that of Callisto—;
		Because they are small, irregularly shaped, and clustered into groups, it is believed that they originated as parts of a larger body that either shattered due to Jupiter's enormous gravity or broke apart in a collision with another body.

		The Himalia group is a group of prograde irregular satellites of Jupiter that follow similar orbits to Himalia and are thought to have a common origin.
		The objects in the Himalia group have semi-major axes (distances from Jupiter) in the range of 11.15 and 11.75 Gm, inclinations between 26.6Â° and 28.3Â°, and eccentricities of between 0.11 and 0.25.
		Consequently, it has been suggested that the current group could be a result of a more recent, rich collisional history among the prograde and retrograde satellites as opposed to the single break-up shortly after the planet formation that has been inferred for the Carme and Ananke groups.

		Himalia did not receive its present name until 1975; before then, it was simply known as Jupiter VI.

		The Himalia prograde group contains five known members and is spectrally homogeneous, arguing for a single progenitor body being responsible for the observed population.
		In particular, the relative orbital velocity between the two largest satellites, Himalia and Elara, is 175 m/sec, the largest Himalia-relative velocity within the group with the exception of S/2000 J11.
		Moreover, the velocity dispersion of the remainder of the group with respect to Elara is as large as 320 m/sec.

		Until 2002, it appeared that the outer retrograde irregular satellites could all be assigned to one of three groups based on inclination and mean distance from Jupiter:
		Note that the outer satellites do not follow the simple period / axis relationship suggested by Kepler's third law because of the gravitational influence of the sun distorting the orbits.
		Note that the satellites discovered between 1904 and 1951 (Himalia, Elara, Pasiphaë, Sinope, Lysithea, Carme and Ananke) were not officially named until 1975, well after their discoverers had passed away.

	Detailed Reviews [Himalia - 2006 - "Himalia II"] - ProgressoR
		According to the ancient Greek mythology, Himalia is a nymph from the island of Rhodes who gave birth to three sons of Zeus.
		Originally a duo of Xavier Besnard (drums, keyboards) and saxophonist Francois Canard, on their second CD Himalia appears as a quintet, which is probably a perfect format to play the music the group had chosen from the very outset of their activity - Jazz-Fusion, generally speaking.
		Considering the content of "Himalia II" according to its statistically-average value, the result would be that this album is equidistant from classic vintage Jazz Rock and the style's current / modern standard, which is not to say the individuality of Himalia's music breaks any genre barriers.

		The Himalia group is a tightly clustered group of moons with orbits around 11,000,000-12,000,000 km from Jupiter.
		It is thought that the groups of outer moons may each have a common origin, perhaps as a larger moon or captured body that broke up.
		It is considered highly unlikely that there is any Earth-like life on Jupiter, as there is little water in the atmosphere and any possible solid surface deep within Jupiter would be under extraordinary pressures.
