Galileo spacecraft image of
Io. The dark spot just left of center is the erupting volcano Prometheus. Whitish plains on either side of it are coated with volcanically emplaced
sulfur dioxide frost, while yellower regions are encrusted with a higher proportion of
sulfur.Current FP proposed for delisting

Support High encyclopedic and educational value, passes all 8 criteria IMO.

This color mosaic uses the near-infrared, green and violet filters (slightly more than the visible range) of the spacecraft's camera and approximates what the human eye would see. --Extra999 (

How come the main color in each of the two are slightly different?

The old FP shows the moon rotated 90o. It is like showing earth from above centered on the Atlantic Ocean vs centered on India. Ideally we should have a set where the two images are 180o away. I am not convinced that having two 90o away is bad, so I would support both as FP.

Better delist that one because it has low compared resolution and is not exactly round. --Extra999 (

Ah, I missed the right crop. Delist and replace then.

Delist and replace. Clear resolution and jpeg quality advantage.

Delist and replace, though I do think the crop a little tight.
