New secrets about Jupiter's volcanically volatile moon Io have been revealed by NASA's Juno probe. Io, Jupiter's third-largest moon, is covered in lakes made of lava, according to a new paper in the ...
NASA is unraveling Io's volcanic secrets. The space agency's Juno spacecraft has been swooping progressively closer to Jupiter's profoundly volcanic moon Io, and its observations reveal the full scope ...
As bristling with volcanoes as a porcupine with quills, Jupiter's moon Io is the most volcanically active world in the Solar System. At any given time, around 150 of the 400 or so active volcanoes on ...
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 ...
NASA's Juno spacecraft's mission to Jupiter has set its sights on the moon Io. The agency said in a release, sharing a striking image of the moon's volcano-laced surface captured in the infrared by ...
The spacecraft came to within 930 miles of Io's surface—the closest any spacecraft has flown by the Jovian moon in over 20 years. reading time 2 minutes The mutilated surface of Jupiter’s moon Io was ...
Io isn’t just another moon, it’s the most volcanically active body in the entire solar system. Orbiting Jupiter, Io is ...
A NASA spacecraft made its closest-ever approach to Jupiter's moon Io, coming within 930 miles of the "surface of the most volcanic world," and the space agency released new images of the flyby. The ...
NASA's Juno spacecraft was dispatched on a mission in 2011 to study the planet Jupiter. It has beamed back some truly stunning images and valuable data on the solar system's largest planet. While in ...
An illustration shows NASA's Juno spacecraft as it makes a flyby of the Jovian moon Io. NASA's Juno mission will come closer to Jupiter's moon Io than any spacecraft has in around 20 years on Saturday ...
A new analysis of data from NASA’s Galileo spacecraft reveals a subsurface “ocean” of magma–either molten or partially molten–beneath the surface of Jupiter’s volcanic moon Io. The finding, from a ...
