NASA’s Juno spacecraft has captured views of Jupiter’s moon Io<\/a> – the most volcanic body in the Solar System – showing a mountain and a smooth lake of cooling lava.<\/p>

The views were produced by members of the Juno<\/a> team, who created animations using data collected by Juno’s flybys of Io in December 2023 and February 2024.<\/p>
