...more hedonistic pleasures. Falling in with a tribe of long-haired dropouts, he soon discovers countercultural drugs and politics.

...photographs of Callisto, darkest and outermost of the Galilean moons, showed that this gloomy sphere may be at least half water. Ganymede also seems watery, but appears to have an ice crust and possibly a mud core.
