Description
Artist's impression of one of the Voyager spacecraft passing above Io, one of the moons of Jupiter. Several volcanic eruptions are seen on the surface of the moon. At upper right, the Sun is seen eclipsed by another of Jupiter's satellites. Continuous volcanic activity on Io was discovered by the two Voyager spacecraft when they passed through the Jovian system in March and July 1979.
