This article is about the moon. For other uses, see Callisto (disambiguation).
Callisto is the third largest moon of Jupiter in the Sol System and a human colony. With little civilian population to speak of, Callisto's purpose is primarily militaristic in nature; the moon's several bases are capable of launching their units and ships within an hour's notice.[1]
History
Callisto was originally discovered in 1610 by Galileo Galilei. Humanity began settling the Jovian Moons in 2080.[2] In 2170, Callisto was the site of the signing of the Callisto Treaty which officially ended the Interplanetary War.[3]
Colonel Herzog claimed to have to deal with paperwork regarding surveillance here.[4]
Trivia
Callisto is named after the Greek mythological figure of the same name.
