The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), Hubble Space Telescope, and NASA's Juno spacecraft are joining forces to study Jupiter's moon, Io, which is the most volcanically active world in the solar system. The Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) will lead the investigation, using data from Hubble and JWST to better understand Io's extreme volcanism and its impact on the Jovian system. The data will particularly be used to guide Io as it makes flybys of the Jovian moon in the future.
