Jupiter contains a number of small moons that are thought to be captured comets or material ejected by collisions with larger objects. What is the evidence for this theory?
◦ Analyses from spacecraft show they have compositions completely different than Jupiter or its moons.
◦ They are too big to have been formed during planetary accretion.
◦ Spacecraft have sampled them, and they are known to be comets.
◦ Their orbits are highly elliptical, off the plane of the ecliptic, and many are retrograde, which is unlikely for satellite formed during planetary accretion.
