IO AND JUPITER

Io drifts across the picturesque backdrop of Jupiter’s clouds in this image from Cassini taken on January 1, 2001. Although Io looks like it’s directly interacting with Jupiter, the planet and its moon are separated by 217, 480 miles (350,000 kilometers), the equivalent of 2.5 Jupiter-size planets. Io, known for its massive volcanic eruptions, is one of Jupiter’s best-known moons, but the giant planet has a total of sixty-seven known moons, the majority of which are less than 6.2 miles (10 kilometers) in diameter.
