Triple bands (TB) are linear features discovered on the Galilean satellite, Europa, during the Voyager mission. TB consist of a central bright stripe averaging one to two km in width, flanked by two parallel low-albedo stripes, each several km or more across. Multispectral imaging data acquired by the Galileo spacecraft provide new insight into the possible origin(s) for TB. Two new models are posed here based on the Galileo data. One involves cryovolcanism, and the other involves a thermal wave. The processes involved in each of these models are described.
