  • Io: Jupiter's Volcanic Moon - A Solar System Wonder
    Jupiter's volcanic moon is Io.

    Io is the most volcanically active body in our solar system, with hundreds of active volcanoes spewing out lava flows, plumes of sulfur dioxide, and other gases. This intense volcanic activity is driven by the gravitational pull of Jupiter and its other large moons, which creates friction and heats up Io's interior.
