The #Voyager1 spacecraft took photos in 1979 on #ThisDayInHistory that proved the existence of #volcanoes on #Io, the innermost of the four #GalileanMoons of #Jupiter. Proximity to #Europa & #Ganymede force an orbital eccentricity that then creates tidal heating of Io's interior.

🚀 VOLCANOES ON ANOTHER WORLD

March 8, 1979 — 700 million kilometers from Earth, NASA's Voyager 1 spacecraft makes an extraordinary discovery: active volcanoes erupting on Io, one of Jupiter's moons. The spacecraft's cameras capture brilliant plumes of sulfur and gas shooting hundreds of kilometers into space — the first time extraterrestrial volcanism was ever observed. This stunning revelation transformed our understanding of geology beyond Earth and proved that our solar system still held surprises.
