Effect of the observation geometry on the mutual approximations’ impact parameters. The angle between the orbital plane of the Galilean moons and the observation vectors (Earth-Io in black and Earth-Europa in red) is plotted for each mutual approximation. The corresponding impact parameters (in as) are represented by blue dots.
