This montage of images of Jupiter and its volcanic moon Io was taken by the New Horizons spacecraft’s flyby in early 2007. The Jupiter image is an infrared color composite taken by the spacecraft’s near-infrared imaging spectrometer on Feb. 28. 2007. The infrared wavelengths used highlight variations in the altitude of the Jovian darken tops with color denoting high-altitude clouds and hazes and red indicating deeper clouds. The prominent bluish-white oval is the Great Red Spot.
The Io visualise taken on walk 1. 2007 is a nearly true-color composite. The image shows a major eruption in develop on Io’s night side at the northern volcano Tvashtar. Incandescent lava glows red beneath a high volcanic cheat whose uppermost portions are illuminated by sunlight. The plume appears blue due to scattering of light by small particles in the cheat.
