Rosaly Lopes has a new blog post on the Planetary Society blog on the mysteries still surrounding Everyone's Favorite Moon (and if it isn't your favorite moon, then may a giant, falling chunk of komatiite greet you ). She aludes to the upcoming observations by New Horizons to study surface changes and volcanic activity on Io, and to an upcoming book, on Io. The book, Io After Galileo, is currently on Amazon, but rest assured, it will be available until early 2007. here is a link to the book's Amazon.com page: http://www.amazon.com/Galileo-Springer-Pra...TF8&s=books -------------------- &@^^!% Jim!

Io is definitely my favorite moon of Jupiter if not in all Solar System.
I was just wondering is there a possibility to acquire good images of Io once Juno gets to Jupiter in July 2016? -------------------- The scientist does not study nature because it is useful; he studies it because he delights in it, and he delights in it because it is beautiful.
