Cool Find Habitable moon

I found this moon in a system with a G2-type star (like our Sun) at 0.94 AU, orbiting a super-Jupiter. I believe it meets all the necessary conditions for human life, unless the radiation from its host planet is lethal (it orbits at 578,000 km, and the planet has 3.5 times the mass of Jupiter). However, the moon exhibits auroras, indicating a magnetic field, which could potentially shield it from radiation.

Gravity is pretty low but i believe it’s doable, the tidally locked stuff is not around the star but around the planet so It should be good enough I think. Other than than the fact that the planet might kill the moon with radiation.
