A volcanologist's paradise
Constantly piqued by Jupiter's and the other moons' gravitational pull,
Io pukes molten matter
422,000 kilometers (262,000 miles) away from Jupiter, Io is a fascinating site for those who can't stand a stable life. Sulfur dioxide is in abundance, and any impact crater can be filled with molten lava anytime.
Named after a mortal woman transformed into a cow by Jupiter's wife Juno in Roman mythology, there is a lot to explore on Io for those who dare.
With remarkable bright red deposit around the volcano Pele, this is definitely a "hot spot" to visit.
Here is another spot you can visit while on Io, the most stable volcano, Prometheus.
Io has many colors, but one of the most interesting sights is Culann Patera, another volcanic center.
Visit another beautiful site called the Tupan Patera, a volcanic crater that is approximately 75 kilometers (47 miles) across.
With a lava lake that is about 150°C higher than its surrounding area, Loki Patera makes a wonderful destination to visit.
