Erupting Volcanoes on Io
NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE
Jupiter's moon Io is a world of active volcanoes. The Voyager spacecraft captured several eruptions as it passed by in 1979. This image shows multiple volcanoes, with one actively erupting, spewing debris into space. Io's intense volcanism is caused by the powerful tidal forces exerted by Jupiter, Europa, and Ganymede, which heat its interior.
