Lynn,
I am guessing that detail would have been visible to a patient observer, but
looking at the moving target of Ganymede's disc at >500x just produces a
headache in my case. Frank Kraljic has been known to use his 10-inch Spooner
scope at 1000x to do such observations. He has seen detail on Ganymede, but he
hasn't reached the level of seeing the volcanic plumes on Io yet.
