Io, the innermost of the four large moons, is illustrated with vertical magnetic field lines connecting to Jupiter. Io is a volcanic moon, and its thin sulphur dioxide atmosphere generates an ionized plasma torus around Jupiter, seen as the hazy yellow ring. Io's volcanoes release around one tonne of sulphur dioxide every second. These become ionised and picked up by Jupiter鈥檚 fast-rotating magnetic field.</p> </div> <ul class="modal__meta_licence"> <li> <b>CREDIT</b><br> ESA/ATG medialab </li> <li> <b>LICENCE</b><br> <a href="/ESA_Multimedia/Terms_and_conditions_of_use_of_images_and_videos_available_on_the_esa_website" target="_blank_">ESA Standard Licence</a> </li> </ul> <ul class="modal__meta"> <li> <div><i class="inline-icon far fa-landmark fa-fw" title="Activity"></i></div> <div> <a href="/ESA_Multimedia/Directorates/Space_Science/(result_type)/images" target="_top">Space Science</a> </div> </li> <li> <div><i class="inline-icon far fa-rocket fa-fw" title="Mission"></i></div> <div> <a href="/ESA_Multimedia/Missions/Juice/(result_type)/images" target="_top">Juice</a> </div> </li> </ul> </div> <div id="modal__tab-content--related" class="modal__tab-content modal__tab-content--related"> <a class="modal__related video exploring-discovering popup" href="/ESA_Multimedia/Videos/2021/07/Jupiter_s_magnetic_environment/(lang)"> <figure class="thumbnail"> <img class="image-bg" src="/var/esa/storage/images/esa_multimedia/videos/2021/07/jupiter_s_magnetic_environment/23395811-1-eng-GB/Jupiter_s_magnetic_environment_card_medium.jpg" alt=""> </figure> <header class="entry"> <span class="pillar">Science & Exploration</span> <h3 class="heading">Jupiter鈥檚 magnetic environment</h3> <div class="meta"> <span>Video</span> <span>00:01:40 </span> <span>3395 <small>views</small></span> <span>40 <small>likes</small></span> </div> </header> </a> <a class="modal__related image exploring-discovering popup" href="/ESA_Multimedia/Images/2022/12/Jupiter_and_its_complex_environment_1_2"> <figure class="thumbnail"> <img class="image-bg" src="/var/esa/storage/images/esa_multimedia/images/2022/12/jupiter_and_its_complex_environment_1_2/24640558-3-eng-GB/Jupiter_and_its_complex_environment_1_2_card_medium.png" alt=""> </figure> <header class="entry"> <span class="pillar">Science & Exploration</span> <h3 class="heading">Jupiter and its complex environment 1/2</h3> <div class="meta"> <span>Image</span> <span>640 <small>views</small></span> <span>1 <small>likes</small></span> </div> </header> </a> <a class="modal__related image exploring-discovering popup" href="/ESA_Multimedia/Images/2022/12/Jupiter_and_its_complex_environment_2_2"> <figure class="thumbnail"> <img class="image-bg" src="/var/esa/storage/images/esa_multimedia/images/2022/12/jupiter_and_its_complex_environment_2_2/24640603-7-eng-GB/Jupiter_and_its_complex_environment_2_2_card_medium.jpg" alt=""> </figure> <header class="entry"> <span class="pillar">Science & Exploration</span> <h3 class="heading">Jupiter and its complex environment 2/2</h3> <div class="meta"> <span>Image</span> <span>632 <small>views</small></span> <span>8 <small>likes</small></span> </div> </header> </a> <a class="modal__related image exploring-discovering popup" href="/ESA_Multimedia/Images/2023/01/Exploring_Jupiter_and_Ganymede_artist_s_impression"> <figure class="thumbnail"> <img class="image-bg" src="/var/esa/storage/images/esa_multimedia/images/2023/01/exploring_jupiter_and_ganymede_artist_s_impression/24680946-1-eng-GB/Exploring_Jupiter_and_Ganymede_artist_s_impression_card_medium.jpg" alt="Exploring Jupiter and Ganymede (artist鈥檚 impression)"> </figure> <header class="entry"> <span class="pillar">Science & Exploration</span> <h3 class="heading">Exploring Jupiter and Ganymede (artist鈥檚 impression)</h3> <div class="meta"> <span>Image</span> <span>1628 <small>views</small></span> <span>34 <small>likes</small></span> </div> </header> </a> <a class="modal__related image exploring-discovering popup" href="/ESA_Multimedia/Images/2023/01/Exploring_Jupiter_and_Ganymede_artist_s_impression2"> <figure class="thumbnail"> <img class="image-bg" src="/var/esa/storage/images/esa_multimedia/images/2023/01/exploring_jupiter_and_ganymede_artist_s_impression2/24684097-1-eng-GB/Exploring_Jupiter_and_Ganymede_artist_s_impression_card_medium.gif" alt="Exploring Jupiter and Ganymede (artist鈥檚 impression)"> </figure> <header class="entry"> <span class="pillar">Science & Exploration</span> <h3 class="heading">Exploring Jupiter and Ganymede (artist鈥檚 impression)</h3> <div class="meta"> <span>Image</span> <span>764 <small>views</small></span> <span>7 <small>likes</small></span> </div> </header> </a> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <script> if (jQuery.cookie('cc_cookie_accept') == "cc_cookie_accept") { var s = document.createElement("script"); s.src = "https://static.addtoany.com/menu/page.js"; document.body.appendChild(s); }</script>  </body> </html>
