DescriptionIo Tupan Patera.jpg
English: Detail of the volcanic crater named Tupan Patera on Jupiter's moon Io, vieweed from NASA's Galileo spacecraft. This image shows the results of lava interacting with sulfur-rich materials, and is only slightly enhanced with infrared light compared to what the human eye would actually see. This image of Tupan Patera, named after a Brazilian thunder god, was taken at a resolution of 135 meters (443 feet) per picture element (so, image width is 100 km).
Русский: Патера Тупана — вулканический кратер на спутнике Юпитера Ио. Снимок «Галилео», октябрь 2001. Ширина изображения — 100 км.
