English: PIA26293 - Planet Jupiter Moon Io - Loki Patera - Animation - April 18, 2024
PIA26293: Looking Into Io's Loki Patera (Artist's Concept) https://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/catalog/PIA26293 Created using data collected by the JunoCam imager aboard NASA's Juno spacecraft, this animation is an artist's concept that shows an aerial view of Loki Patera, a lava lake on the Jovian moon Io. The 124-mile-long (200-kilometer-long) lake is filled with magma, rimmed with hot lava, and dotted with islands. Loki provided a spectacular reflection when imaged by JunoCam during flybys of the moon in December 2023 and February 2024, suggesting it and other parts of Io's surface are as smooth as glass. The large island in Loki Patera does not have a name. JunoCam's raw images are available for the public to peruse and process into image products at https://missionjuno.swri.edu/junocam/processing.
