Volcanic Eruption |
![]() |
The eruption seen here is coming from the volcano named Prometheus. The eruption is roughly 300 km (190 mi) in diameter and 50 km (30 mi) high. It appears like a giant black spider standing in a white ring on the surface of Io, located at the center of the curve of the limb.
