Jupiter's moon Io has over 400 active volcanoes.
Is io bigger than the moon?
Io is a little bigger than the moon :)
How does IO have active volcanoes?
Io, like all the moons of Jupiter, is subject to intense tidal stresses caused by Jupiter's powerful gravity. Those tides generate friction within the moon, causing its temperature to remain much higher than, for example, our own moon. That heat liquefies and/or evaporates minerals inside Io, which then vent from the surface in precisely the same manner as volcanoes on Earth.
Which galilean satellite has active volcanos?
Io is the innermost of the four large moons (Galilean moons) of Jupiter. Its closeness to Jupiter means that its surface is in a constant state of flex, the gravity from Jupiter distorts its surface, generating heat and flaws in the surface of the moon. This means that volcanoes are a common occurrence on Io.
Which moon looks the brightest from the surface of Jupiter?
The moon Io looks the brightest from the surface of Jupiter. That's because Io is the closest moon to the planet. Io is the moon on the left of the planet.
