Seit seiner Entstehung vor 4,5 Milliarden Jahren war der Vulkanmond Io andauernd aktiv. Darauf weisen Untersuchungen von Schwefel- und Chlorisotopen hin.#Jupitermond #Vulkanmond #Io #Jupiter #Raumsonde #ALMA #Astronomie

The probe’s original mission first wrapped in July of 2021, but it has since then been given an extended mission with a deadline set for 2025.
...on Juno’s current orbit, it will steadily get closer to the moon, until in February of 2024 it will be within 1,500 kilometers of Io’s surface. The probe is expected to take more exciting images, as it inches closer to the fire and ice moon.
#Jupiter’s #moon, which is made up of fire and ice, has a surface temperature of negative 250 degrees Fahrenheit, but is covered in more than 400 active volcanoes which produce hot lava that can reach temperatures of 3,000 degrees Fahrenheit (1,000 degrees hotter than on Earth).
And if that doesn’t already sound like a terrifying place to visit, the moon also features large lakes of lava that are more than 100 miles across in length, changing volcanic deposits, as well as fountains of fire that unpredictably erupt.
Io is one of Jupiter’s 95 known moons, and is one of the four largest.

Peter Gabriel - Secret World (Back to Front)
So fortunate to have finally seen this gentleman perform live on the i/o tour. While they didn't play this particular tune, Tony Levin's 'Funk Fingers', Monsieur Manu Katché's explosive drumming, and David Rhode's menacing guitar riffs were on full display. And at 73, Peter's voice remains magnificent.

Hier kann man Jupiter mit seinen vier Monden gut erkennen:
#Callisto, #Ganymade, Jupiter, #Io und #Europa
Bleibt senkrecht und gesund!

#Welt! Bist du noch da?
#Planetenstunden …
… für den #Bildungsauftrag und so!
Einen Teil des #Mondes erkennt ihr und nebenan sieht man den ollen Jup mit seinen Monden seine Bahn ziehen. Wenn ich richtig geguckt habe, dann sind es die großen Monde von links nach Rechts:
#Callisto, #Ganymade, #Io und #Europa
#Astronomen und #Astronominnen dürfen mich gerne berichtigen (-:
Jetzt einen interstellaren #Kaffee und ein wenig musikalische Unterhaltung:

Peter Gabriel - Road to Joy released
It seems rare these days to find artists who have been around for decades not trading in on nostalgia or becoming a parody of (or tribute to) themselves. Peter is one such artist who has embraced change and technology to move forward and evolve. Having said that, I am in no way against any artist preserving their musical heritage and presenting it to the fans who want to re-experience it or the new generations who are discovering the music for the first time.
I am looking forward to seeing Peter live in 2023!

It's a clear #night and #Jupiter and #Venus are bright in the #western #sky and getting closer together in their apparent positions. This is a #photograph of the pair with a 1.6 s exposure. It is also difficult to get a sharp #focus manually as autofocus doesn't really work with objects at infinity and yet effectively points of light. This taken with a 400 mm #telephoto #lens.
Also with long exposures and a heavy lens, even a the tiniest #vibration on the tripod can blur the image, even with the sharpest focus. Here's the same image but cropping around Jupiter. You can see its four biggest satellites, (left to right: #Europa, #Io, #Ganymede and #Callisto, information courtesy of #Stellarium)

#Triton, #Io and #Venus are the only bodies in the #solarsystem besides #Earth that are known to be #volcanically #active at the present time. One volcanic feature on Triton, Leviathan Patera, is a caldera roughly 100 km in diameter surrounded by a volcanic dome 2,000 km wide. These dimensions make Leviathan the second largest volcano in the solar system by area, after extinct Alba Mons on Mars.

#Jupiter is visible at #dusk at the moment and so here it is. I've labelled the following A: #SigmaAquarii, for orientation, J: Jupiter, G: #Ganymede, E: #Europa, C: #Callisto and you can just see I: #Io as a bulge to the bottom right of Jupiter itself. Data from #Stellarium. Exposure time: 1.3 s, F/6.3.

I think of myself as a hobbyist #photographer interested in many things, including #astronomy and sometimes I get lucky. Tonight, for example, I noticed #Jupiter was close to the #Moon and so I got my #tripod out and tried to #photograph the pair. Currently, both are in #Capricorn and to get both, one needs a longish exposure. Here I used 2 s. This of course means that the Moon's features can't be seen as the lit surface is #overexposed but you can see its unlit side too.
The very nice thing about this image is that you can actually see Jupiter's four largest satellites too, so you could say that the photograph actually shows five #moons in total. Jupiter is forming a triangle here with #DenebAlgedi (bottom left) and #Nashira (bottom right)
By focusing around Jupiter itself, you can see its moons much better. From left to right, you can see #Europa, #Io, #Ganymede and #Callisto. The three #stars forming a diagonal line are, respectively, 45, 44 and 42 #Capricorni (left to right).
