Io, Jupiter's third largest moon is the most volcanically active body in the Solar System. Its spews about 100 times more lava than all of the volcanoes on Earth combined. Though Io is only a tiny bit bigger than Earth's moon, its nature combines to the most dangerous havoc in the Solar System! Io is the only known body other than Earth to produce lava. Scientists predict that Io's lava ocean may spill and cover up the entire moon. Unlike Earth, Io doesn't have a basic magnetic field. Temperatures in this scorching heat rise to 2,200 degrees fahrenheit! Due to the existence of magma, Io must have a crust displacement which allows to move the crusts. However, scientists still try to learn more of this mysterious inferno.
