Fresh from Jupiter, we have new views of its active moon Io, thanks to the #JunoMission. JunoCam even caught a glimpse of a volcanic plume! This is Prometheus, the "Old Faithful of Io." More images: https://www.missionjuno.swri.edu/junocam/processing?source=public

Our #JunoMission is making ever closer passes by Jupiter’s moon Io. The spacecraft will take another look at the active, volcanic moon on July 30 – with even closer flybys to come. 🌋 https://www.missionjuno.swri.edu/news/nasa-s-juno-is-getting-ever-closer-to-jupiter-s-moon-io

So many pics...
The legacy of exploration at the giant planet continues today with the #JunoMission, @NASAWebb, and soon, @EuropaClipper

Congratulations to the NANOGrav team! We're excited that our #JunoMission to Jupiter played a role in this historic discovery by providing key data about the solar system's barycenter. https://spaceplace.nasa.gov/barycenter/en/

Today our #JunoMission completed its 52nd close pass by Jupiter! Earlier this year, it captured this view of storms and hazes on the giant planet. https://www.missionjuno.swri.edu/news/nasa-s-juno-mission-observes-high-altitude-hazes-in-jupiter

Oh hello, Io! During its 51st close flyby of Jupiter on May 16, our #JunoMission captured these views of Jupiter's volcanic moon Io.

Io aglow! Our #JunoMission observed Jupiter's moon Io in visible and infrared light, yielding this composite view showing hot spots across the surface of the solar system's most volcanically active world. https://www.missionjuno.swri.edu/news/nasas-juno-mission-getting-closer-to-jupiters-moon-io

50/50: On the heels of the #JunoMission's 50th orbit of Jupiter, NASA's Ingenuity #MarsHelicopter has completed its 50th flight on Mars. The numbers are a coincidence, but the pace of exploration across the solar system is not! Join us for the journey: http://solarsystem.nasa.gov

Where else in the solar system do we see active volcanoes? Jupiter's moon Io – seen here by @NASAVoyager and in infrared light by the #JunoMission – is continually tugged by gravity from Jupiter and its other moons, resulting in hundreds of volcanoes. http://solarsystem.nasa.gov/io

For no particular reason, we're thinking about Jupiter's volcanic moon Io today. Our #JunoMission will fly by it on March 1, but you can make a virtual visit anytime at: http://solarsystem.nasa.gov/io
Oh, and happy #NationalPizzaDay

The JunoCam instrument aboard the #JunoMission spacecraft captured this image of Jupiter's volcanic moon Io on Dec. 14 from a distance of about 40,000 miles (64,000 kilometers). The team expects additional images from the pass to be available soon at http://www.missionjuno.swri.edu/junocam/processing
