      <Description>The Galileo mission consists of two spacecraft: an orbiter and an atmospheric probe.
The orbiter is the sixth spacecraft to explore the Jovian magnetosphere, but the first to be placed into orbit around the giant planet.
Scientific objectives addressed by the orbiter are to:
* investigate the circulation and dynamics of the Jovian atmosphere;
* investigate the upper Jovian atmosphere and ionosphere;
* characterize the morphology, geology, and physical state of the Galilean satellites;
* investigate the composition and distribution of surface minerals on the Galilean satellites;
* determine the gravitational and magnetic fields and dynamic properties of the Galilean satellites;
* study the atmospheres, ionospheres, and extended gas clouds of the Galilean satellites;
* study the interaction of the Jovian magnetosphere with the Galilean satellites;
* characterize the vector magnetic field and the energy spectra, composition, and angular distribution of energetic particles and plasma to a distance of 150 Rj.
