Juno Probe Spots Largest Known Volcanic Event on Io
Even with that distinction, the team was shocked by the scale of Juno's latest discovery, which appears to be the most powerful volcanic event ever recorded. Since completing its primary science objectives in orbit of Jupiter,
NASA's Juno probe discovers powerful volcanic activity on Jupiter’s moon Io
NASA’s Juno probe has discovered a massive volcanic hot spot on Jupiter’s moon Io. The hot spot emits 80 trillion watts of energy — six times the total output of Earth's power plants. This marks the most powerful volcanic event ever recorded on Io.
NASA's Juno mission spots most powerful volcanic activity on Jupiter's moon Io
LOS ANGELES, Jan. 30 (Xinhua) -- Scientists with NASA's Juno mission have discovered a volcanic hot spot in the southern hemisphere of Jupiter's moon Io, NASA said on Thursday. The hot spot is not only larger than Earth's Lake Superior, but it also belches out eruptions six times the total energy of all the world's power plants, according to NASA.
Record-Breaking Volcanic Event As Big As Kentucky Seen On Jupiter's Moon Io
Jupiter’s moon Io is the most volcanically active world in the Solar System. The gravitational tug-of-war between Jupiter and its other large moons squeezes Io so that its interior is molten. That magma finds its way to the surface in lava lakes and volcanic eruptions.
Juno Mission Finds Record Volcanic Activity on Io
A massive hotspot - larger the Earth's Lake Superior - can be seen just to the right of Io's south pole in this annotated image taken by
Volcanic eruption on Jupiter's moon Io covers area larger than Lake Superior
NASA’s Juno mission found Io’s biggest volcanic eruption ever. The explosion was stronger than all Earth’s power plants combined.
NASA’s Juno Mission Detects Most Powerful Volcanic Eruption Ever Seen on Io
NASA’s Juno mission has captured the most powerful volcanic eruption ever recorded on Io, Jupiter’s highly active moon. Even by Io’s extreme standards—where more than 400 volcanoes constantly reshape its surface—the latest event stands out as an unparalleled display of cosmic firepower.
NASA spacecraft flew by distant world. It saw unprecedented volcanism.
On Dec. 27, 2024, NASA's Juno spacecraft swooped by the volcanic world Io. It witnessed a giant eruption.
