Jupiter's volcanic moon Io doesn't appear to have a subsurface ocean of magma, resolving some issues about how Io's volcanoes erupt and raising broader questions about similar magma oceans within ...

The hellish surface of a moon of Jupiter known as Io is riddled with hundreds of lava-spewing volcanoes that make the world one of chaos and violence. The brutal conditions also make Io intriguing to ...

A spectacular image taken by NASA’s Juno probe this past weekend shows Jupiter’s moon Io with twin eruptions on the surface, underlining the fact that Io is the most volcanically active place in our ...

NASA’s Galileo spacecraft caught Jupiter’s moon Io, the planet’s third-largest moon, undergoing a volcanic eruption. NASA/JPL/DLR On March 9, 1979, Linda Morabito discovered a volcanic plume on Io, a ...

NASA's Juno mission obtained a visible-light image of two possible volcanic plumes on Jupiter's moon Io during a February 3rd flyby, at a closest approach of 930 miles (1,500 km). This was Juno's ...

NASA's Juno spacecraft has completed yet another flyby of Io, Jupiter's highly volcanic moon. Coming eerily close to the moon, the small spacecraft was able to capture images of twin volcanic plumes ...

NASA's Juno spacecraft recently whizzed past the moon Io. Every night's a marvelous time for a moon dance at Jupiter. Jupiter's moon Io displays a volcanic surface including large, dark patches of ...

NASA's Juno spacecraft detected the most intense volcanic eruption ever recorded on Jupiter's moon Io. During a flyby on December 27, 2024, Juno was approximately 74,400 kilometers from Io's surface ...

Tides flowing in a subsurface ocean of molten rock, or magma, could explain why Jupiter’s moon Io appears to have its volcanoes in the “wrong” place. New NASA research implies that oceans beneath the ...

A large volcanic outburst was discovered on Io, a large moon of Jupiter. Io is the most volcanic body in the Solar System; this vulcanism is caused by tidal stresses induced by Jupiter and two of its ...

Jupiter’s moon, Io, is the most volcanically active planetary body in the entire solar system as it boasts hundreds of active volcanoes. This number continues to grow as recent study at the Europlanet ...

This first-ever complete map of Jupiter's volcanic moon Io released on March 19, 2012, was created using data and images from NASA's Galileo spacecraft, (which studied Jupiter and its moons between ...
