Juno Mission Gets Under Jupiter’s and Io’s Surface
The Juno mission has provided new insights into Jupiter’s atmospheric phenomena and Io’s volcanic activity. Recent data has improved understanding of the gas giant’s jet streams and revealed Io’s subsurface temperature profile, shedding light on its inner structure. These findings were discussed during a news briefing at the European Geosciences Union General Assembly, highlighting the extreme characteristics of Jupiter and its moon, including powerful cyclones and intense volcanic activity.
