The Io–Jupiter system is similar, in scale, to an exoplanet orbiting an M-dwarf, and if volcanic Io doesn't have a magma ocean then perhaps exoplanets on close orbits around M-dwarfs don't either.

Io, one of Jupiter’s Jovian moons, is the most volcanic place in our entire Solar System. Over the last few years NASA’s Juno ...

The volcanic feature, which has yet to be named, spans a colossal 40,000 square miles – dwarfing Io's previous record holder, a lava lake named Loki Patera that measured about 7,700 square miles ...

A recent study of Io’s sulfurous atmosphere suggests that Jupiter’s moon has been a volcanic hellscape for almost the Solar System’s entire 4.57 billion-year history.

Astronomers have captured a volcanic event on Jupiter's moon Io at a resolution never before achieved with Earth-based observations Date: May 30, 2024 Source: University of Arizona Summary: ...

The volcanoes on Jupiter’s moon Io are like exotic dishes: they’re hot, spicy, and have unfamiliar ingredients, according to new data from NASA’s Galileo spacecraft.

Instead, each of Io's 400 or so volcanoes may harbor their own chamber of magma. And NASA intends to further investigate this new site of prodigious volcanism. Juno will again fly by Io on March 3.

The acid yellow moon Io that orbits Jupiter may be less than 30% the size of Earth, but is considered the most volcanic body in our solar system. As demonstrated by explosive news from NASA on ...

This artist’s concept depicts a potential volcanic moon between the exoplanet WASP-49 b, left, and its parent star. New evidence indicating that a massive sodium cloud observed near WASP-49 b is ...

PSI Senior Scientist Morgenthaler has been using IoIO, located near Benson, Arizona to monitor volcanic activity on Io, since 2017. The observations show some sort of outburst nearly every year ...

The Io–Jupiter system is similar, in scale, to an exoplanet orbiting an M-dwarf, and if volcanic Io doesn't have a magma ocean then perhaps exoplanets on close orbits around M-dwarfs don't either.
