From http://www.wired.com/wiredscience/2009/01/et-life/:

Jupiter's moon Io is one of the few solar system moons to support an atmosphere, and it contains complex chemicals promising for life. Volcanism on the moon also makes it warmer than many others - another good sign. Io is still a long shot, though, because its location inside Jupiter's magnetic field means it is constantly being pelted with lethal radiation. Its violent surface also seems inhospitable, with temperatures often too cold to support life, as well as molten hot spots that are equally deadly.

How do you recognize conditions leading to safety hazard?

Conditions leading to a safety hazard are conditions that could result in injury or property damage. Look around and think about what might break, be mishandled, over loaded, misused, or overlooked. The think about what might happen if that occurs. If what might happen includes injury or property damage, you have recognized a safety hazard. Now you have to think about how likely it is to happen, and how sever (or how minor) the injury or damage might be.
