 | | One of a quartet of small moons, with Leda, Elara and Himalia, that orbit Jupiter far beyond the four large Galilean Moons. |
 | | Like the other moons in this group, Lysithea's orbit carries it around Jupiter at a distance of more than 100,000 kilometres. |
 | | With a diameter of just 36 kilometres, Lysithea is by far the smallest of its particular group of satellites - Himalia, by comparison, has a diameter of 186 kilometres. |
