Totally Fascinating
This is a picture of two volcanic plumes on Jupiter's moon, Io, which is interesting enough itself, but what struck me is there's this whole world there, with what look like oceans and continents and the whole works.

Totally fascinating indeed. Is this the moon with the sulphur dioxide volcanoes? There's another moon covered with mile thick ice oceans, which they think are liquid at the bottom. Fascinating.
