The Juno mission has discovered remarkably strong activity on Jupiter's moon, Io. The hot spot emits eruptions with energy six times greater than the total power of all power plants in the world, NASA's Juno mission scientists caution.

NASA's Juno spacecraft has spotted the most powerful volcanic eruption ever seen on the solar system's most volcanic body, the Jovian moon Io.

NASA’s Juno mission found Io’s biggest volcanic eruption ever. The explosion was stronger than all Earth’s power plants combined.

NASAs Juno probe has discovered a massive volcanic hot spot on Jupiters moon Io. The hot spot emits 80 trillion watts of energy — six times the total output of Earth's power plants. This marks the most powerful volcanic event ever recorded on Io.

NASA’s Juno mission has captured the most powerful volcanic eruption ever recorded on Io, Jupiter’s highly active moon. Even by Io’s extreme standards—where more than 400 volcanoes constantly reshape its surface—the latest event stands out as an unparalleled display of cosmic firepower.

Jupiter’s moon Io is the most volcanically active world in the Solar System. The gravitational tug-of-war between Jupiter and its other large moons squeezes Io so that its interior is molten. That magma finds its way to the surface in lava lakes and volcanic eruptions.
