Home The north polar region of Jupiter’s volcanic moon Io was captured by NASA’s Juno during the spacecraft’s 57th close pass of the gas giant on December 30th, 2023. Data from that flyby and one on February 3rd, 2024, is helping scientists understand Io’s interior. (Image data: NASA/JPL-Caltech/SwRI/MSSS.

This map represents data captured by the Microwave Radiometer instrument aboard NASA’s Juno, indicating heat rising from just beneath the surface of Jupiter’s moon Io. The colors illustrate a distinct temperature gradient across the moon, with the most extreme, localized heat output in red. (NASA/JPL-Caltech/SwRI/USGS)
