​Jupiter's moon Europa has a very smooth surface covered in water ice 10 to 15 kilometers thick while it has few impact craters, unlike Callisto and implying its youth. Scientists also believe that the icy surface is floating on top of an ocean of water 40 to 100 miles deep. If this is true, Europa's ocean would contain twice as much water as all of Earth’s oceans combined despite being only one-fourth the diameter the Earth. If Europa is 4.5 billion years old as the evolutionists explain, where are the impact craters? Europa has three large impact craters on its surface, however there should be more considering the proposed age of Europa. Some evolutionists believe that the deep ocean prevents craters from forming, however, several large craters have formed. Europa also has a core and a magnetic field, implying its youth within the creationist model and the unlikelihood of existence over billions of years.
