Derivation of name

Latest comment: 15 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

The article says the ship "was named for Europa, the smallest of the Galilean moons of planet Jupiter." Citation? How do we know she wasn't named for either the continent of Europe (Europa in German, Latin and various other European languages) or for the Greek mythological figure?
