Abstract
The satellites of the outer solar system appear to be composed principally of water ice and silicates, with the presence of ammonia and methane hydrates (Lewis 1971). Although these bodies are small (with radii typically < 1000 km) they can exhibit very active evolutionary histories, due to the low melting point of water ice.
