Ganymede Another of Jupiter’s moons, Ganymede, holds a subsurface ocean beneath a thick ice shell. This ocean is thought to be around 100 km deep, with several layers of ice and liquid water.

Jupiter's moon Ganymede is believed to contain an ocean much deeper than oceans on Earth — about 100 kilometres thick and hidden beneath a 150-kilometre crust of mostly ice.
