Not bad. A couple nit picks about accuracy though:
1. The rotation in the video is backwards for both Jupiter and Io.
2. Io is tidally locked to Jupiter, so like our moon, it always shows the same side to Jupiter. The other Galilean moons do this as well.
Also, the polar diameter is 93.5% less than its equatorial diameter, due to its fast rotation. if you scaled your model vertically by 0.935, you'll have it pretty dead on.
Great video, the actual number of Jupiter's moons may be between 70, 80 or more. Jupiter is more than 1450x the volume of the Earth. Thanks for showing this.
Wow....those images look shaper than cassini's! Great video, thanks for sharing...got any others?

No problem.
its a joy to bring things like this to those who appreciate it.
I also enjoy being able to grab real life imagery and apply it in this way to give a new slant on already fascinating data.
I hope we do not have to wait too long to get a really good close up view of Jupiters many moons.

Very nice! That hadda take quite a bit of effort to put together. Nice sequence construction.
