Come join Dr. Z as we take a thrilling dive into the wild world of Io, one of Jupiter’s most fascinating moons and the most volcanically active body in the entire solar system. This talk will explore Io’s constantly shifting surface, shaped by towering lava fountains, glowing lakes of molten rock, and giant sulfur plumes as well as its formation and the spacecrafts which have imaged the surface. ☆🌌🚀
