NASA's Juno probe gets a close-up look at lava lakes on Jupiter's moon Io

New findings from NASA's Juno probe provide a fuller picture of how widespread the lava lakes are on Jupiter's moon Io and include first-time insights into the volcanic processes at work there. These results come courtesy of Juno's Jovian Infrared Auroral Mapper (JIRAM) instrument, contributed by the Italian Space Agency, which "sees" in infrared light. Researchers have published a paper on Juno's most recent volcanic discoveries in Communications Earth and Environment.
