Here's why:
* Ganymede is much more massive than the Moon. Ganymede is the largest moon in our solar system, and its mass is about 2.5 times greater than the Moon's.
* Gravity is directly proportional to mass. The more massive an object is, the stronger its gravitational pull.
Therefore, even though Ganymede is farther from Jupiter than the Moon is from Earth, its larger mass results in a stronger gravitational pull.
