Jupiter Moon Io:-

Two sulfurous eruptions are visible on the surface of Jupiter's volcanic moon Io in this color composite image from the robotic Galileo spacecraft, which orbited Jupiter from 1995 to 2003. Io, one of Jupiter's 62 known moons, is the most volcanically active body in the solar system.

Map of Jupiter's South Pole:-

This map of Jupiter is the most detailed global color map of the planet ever produced. A polar stereographic projection showing Jupiter's south pole in the center of the map and its equator at the edge, the map was constructed from images taken by Cassini in December 2000 as the spacecraft passed on its way to Saturn.

Jupiter's Great Red Spot:-

In 1979 Voyager 1 captured this photo of an immense high-pressure storm, called the Great Red Spot, swirling on Jupiter. Winds blow counterclockwise around the Great Red Spot at about 250 miles (400 kilometers) an hour. The storm is larger than one Earth diameter from north to south, and more than two Earth diameters from east to west.

Eruption on Io:-

Newly erupted lava roils on the surface of Jupiter's moon Io in this false-color image taken on February 22, 2000, by NASA's Galileo spacecraft. The orange-and-yellow ribbon is a cooling lava flow more than 37 miles (60 kilometers) long.

Moons Visible on Jupiter:-

In this composite image from near-infrared light, two of Jupiter's moons are visible against the planet. The white circle in the middle of Jupiter is Io, and the blue circle at upper right is Ganymede. The three black spots are shadows cast by Io, Ganymede, and another moon, Callisto.

Full Jupiter Mosaic:-

This image of Jupiter was produced from a mosaic of photos taken by the New Horizons Long Range Reconnaissance Imager (LORRI). The telescopic camera snapped the images during a span of 3 minutes and 35 seconds when the spacecraft was 18 million miles (29 million kilometers) from Jupiter.

Jupiter and Io:-

NASA's Cassini spacecraft looked back and snapped this image of Jupiter and its crescent moon Io on January 15, 2001, 17 days after the spacecraft passed Jupiter on its way to a 2004 appointment with Saturn.

Jupiter's Clouds:-

Exaggerated hues in this false-color image tint clouds swirling southeast of Jupiter's Great Red Spot, an immense high-pressure storm. The image was captured by Voyager I, which took nearly 19,000 pictures of Jupiter over a period of four months in 1979.

Jupiter and Its Moons:-

This family portrait, a composite of the Jovian system, includes the edge of Jupiter (with the Great Red Spot visible) and Jupiter's four largest moons, known as the Galilean satellites. From top to bottom are Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto. The smallest of these four moons, Europa is about the size of Earth's moon.
