Jupiter boasts quite a vast array of moons.
Four of the most well-known ones - Io, Callisto, Ganymede and Europa - were discovered as far back as in 1609 by Galileo Galilei. Similar to the Moon and Mercury in size, they are on the list of the largest satellites in the Solar System. It is also suggested that when forming Jupiter accumulated substantial amounts of thermal energy due to gravitational contraction. As a result, it is now giving off more of this energy than it is getting from the Sun. That is why the gas giant with all the objects orbiting it may be seen as a curious version of the Solar System in miniature.
