NASA's New Horizons spacecraft snapped this image of Jupiter's moon Io in February as it passed within 1.4 million miles of the planet. The smoky cap hovering over Io is one of its volcanic plumes, the gas from which extends as high as 330 kilometers (200 miles) above its surface. Io is the most geologically active body in the solar system.
