colonized and being terraformed in Heinlein's Farmer In The Sky;
the setting of Asimov's "Christmas on Ganymede";
colonized and cultivated by Adapted Men in Blish's The Seedling Stars;
colonized and with an underground city in Anderson's The Snows Of Ganymede;
a base for visits to Jupiter in Flandry's period;
colonized thirty years ago, with a small overground town, in Anderson's Three Worlds To Conquer;
colonized and being terraformed in the Epilogue of Anderson's Twilight World.
Instead, other Blish and Anderson characters remotely explore the Jovian surface from the safety of Jupiter V. I am about to be interrupted by a Windows update.

All of which makes me wonder how current SF writers might handle Ganymede, based on our latest knowledge about that moon of Jupiter.
