The moon known as "Io" is the innermost largest moon of Jupiter, and it is about the same size and density of Earth's moon.

However, Io is the most volcanically active body known in the Solar System. Eruptions are so common, and so large, that the ENTIRE surface of the moon could be buried under 100 metres of material in only 1 million years.
