Europa isn't special- Enceledus, Titan, Triton, Ganymede, etc all have underground oceans.

Great point, but Europa and Enceladus are the two Moons that we'll be able to explore underwater within the next few decades though, the other Moons underground oceans are too deep under the crust afaik.

The major outer moons I would personally like to visit are Titan, Charon, and Iapetus. I also like Puck. I know that's a minor moon of Uranus, but its name is glorious, and that's why I like it.

EDIT: Also Mimas.

Idk about Triton, but Ganymede isn't actually guaranteed to have one, although it's very likely.

Also, there's a lot of Titan love, yeah, it has a thick atmo, which is very unique to moons, but that atmo ruins the view. You couldn't see Saturn. Too thick.

I like the Galilean moons a lot. Almost all are in a Laplace resonance, and eventually Callisto might enter it too.

I like Charon. Have you seen the Charonian maps? The big red blotch on the north pole is called Mordor Macula

3/4 is not "almost all". That's 75%

But one less than a total is almost all of that total.

Titan is the most likely place for life.

Also, Iapetus has a crater, which could have a stargate, capable of turning Jupiter into a star.Ha Ha.It is pretty cool,though.

 

Heh, I just read that book.
