NASA Detects Intense Heat Beneath Io, Jupiter’s Most Volcanic Moon
A NASA probe peered beneath the surface of the most volcanic world in the solar system, revealing scorching heat rising from below its crust. During two recent close flybys of Jupiter’s moon Io, NASA’s Juno mission measured the temperature below its surface for the first time. Jupiter’s tortured moon Io is covered in hundreds of volcanoes, which spew fountains of lava that constantly refill impact craters on the surface with scorching molten lakes.

Opening excerpt (first ~120 words) tap to expand
A NASA probe peered beneath the surface of the most volcanic world in the solar system, revealing scorching heat rising from below its crust. During two recent close flybys of Jupiter’s moon Io, NASA’s Juno mission measured the temperature below its surface for the first time. The data showed significant heating within the shallow subsurface of the moon that may be rising steadily through a conductive…
