Presentation transcript:

 Surface Gravity is.183 of earth’s gravity  The surface is sulfur  Surface is very young  Io’s day is.431 days on Earth  Thin atmosphere of SO 2

 Little to no water  Highest temp k and average is 130 k  Few creators have impacted on Io  5.2 AU (astronomical unit) from the sun

 Exploration of Io  Finding valuable resources  If at all possibly, ship valuable resources back to earth  Find out more about how volcanoes on other planets work

 Volcanoes › Caused by Jupiter's gravity  Extreme heat regions  Earthquakes  Radiation  Low atmosphere  Poison gases

 Orbiter › Stereo camera › Spectroscope (infrared) › Spectroscope (ultraviolet and visible)  Lander › Stereo Camera › Rock abrasion tool › Digger arm
