Rhadamanthys Linea (Enhanced Natural Color Version)
Caption NASA Originale:"Europa's Surface is covered with a vast network of Linear Features such as cracks, ridges, and bands, as well as other smaller circular features that include pits, spots, domes, and microchaos. 
This image, created from clear-filter images taken on the Galileo spacecraft's 17th orbit around Jupiter and colorized with lower-resolution images taken on Galileo's first orbit around Jupiter, shows a huge variety of these feature types. 
Of particular note is the prominent ridge at the center of the image, called Rhadamanthys Linea. 
While most ridges have a reddish appearance in colorized images such as this enhanced color version, Rhadamanthys appears to have uneven blotches of darker, redder material which are more prominent in some locations than in others. 
Some scientists have interpreted the appearance of Rhadamanthys to indicate that it is a recently, or perhaps currently, active feature on Europa's Surface".
