A prominent 4.57 μm absorption band that might result from CN-bearing organics is present and significantly stronger on Callisto’s leading hemisphere, unlike 12CO2, suggesting these two spectral features are spatially antiassociated. The distribution of the 4.57 μm band is more consistent with a native origin and/or accumulation of dust from Jupiter’s irregular satellites. Other, more subtle absorption features could result from CH-bearing organics, CO, carbonyl sulfide, and Na-bearing minerals. These results highlight the need for preparatory laboratory work and improved surface-atmosphere interaction models to better understand carbon chemistry on the icy Galilean moons before the arrival of NASA’s Europa Clipper and ESA’s JUICE spacecraft.
