Avid volcanic moon enjoyer, makes space images look nice
wrong Comet ATLAS

V3 is definitely the way to go. Shows the double fountain best.

A bigger arachnid city than my office?

Like seriously, who gave information on jury lunches on background!

Close up the internet everyone. We're done for the day.

The best paragraph I've read in a news story in a while:

The jury — which feasted on sandwiches for lunch on Thursday, according to a person familiar with jury lunches — deliberated the charges for several hours on Wednesday and Thursday before delivering the verdict.

makes me wonder if they picked a bad angle. most lego models look terrible when you look at their underside.

She's in what, an R+20, R+30 district. It isn't re-election she's worried about. She is considering state-wide office and in purple Georgia she will have to sand down the crazy.

I mean, that's one way to lower housing prices.

We had a trip to Europe in September. I'm glad we scheduled it for September and not October...

While the spatial resolution from spacecraft can beat what can be obtained from Earth, they only provide brief windows into activity on Io. With this new terrestrial tool, we can fill in the gaps between spacecraft encounters and allow us to track how frequently major changes occur and how they fade

New plume deposits at Mixcoatl Fluctus and around the new eruption west of Illyrikon Regio and the darkening of paterae in Colchis Regio and east of Bactria Regio were also observed.

In February, a pair of images were acquired using SHARK-VIS showing changes at Seth Patera and the evolution of the plume deposits around Tvashtar and Thor (which experienced major eruptions in the 2000s).

Thanks to SHARK-VIS instrument on the Large Binocular Telescope, we are now able to monitor Io's surface changes from Arizona, producing global maps at 50-100 km resolution (hopefully) every year.

To monitor how this activity, we have had to rely on spacecraft encounters from missions like Juno to track how it changes with time, though earth-based and space-based telescopes have allowed us to monitor the thermal emission given off by Io's active volcanoes. Until now.

Io is the most active body in the solar system, with volcanic eruptions changing its face with new lava flows and volatile deposits. Just last year, an eruption west of Illyrikon Regio in Io's south polar region created a lava flow field the size of the US state of Maryland in less than 2 months!
