The Best Things to Do in Costa Rica: Surfing, Rainforests, and Treehouse Hotels
Costa Rica offers a rich variety of experiences, from volcano hikes to unique accommodations, making it an ideal destination for nature and adventure enthusiasts.
Volcanic eruptions can be benign and beautiful, showcasing Earth's natural wonders rather than just its destructive potential.

NASA Spacecraft Swoops So Close to Io That It Can See Volcanic Eruptions
Jupiter's moon Io is the most volcanically active place in our Solar System.
NASA's Juno probe captured an image of twin eruptions on Io's surface.
Jupiter's Supervolcanic Moon Io Dazzles in Photos from NASA's Close Flybys
The Juno spacecraft completed its second close flyby of Io, providing scientists with valuable data on the moon's volcanoes and potential magma ocean.
Juno's original mission was to explore Jupiter, but it has now expanded to include studying three of Jupiter's moons and its rings.
NASA Spots Signs of Twin Volcanic Plumes on Jupiter's Moon Io
NASA's Juno orbiter made a second close-up flyby of Jupiter's moon Io, capturing more views of its volcanic landscape.
The flyby revealed a double volcanic plume spewing into space, which Juno has never observed before.
Look! NASA Snapped A Rare Closeup of the Solar System's Most Terrifying Moon
NASA's Juno spacecraft flew over the southern hemisphere of Jupiter's moon Io, capturing images of volcanoes and lava lakes.
Io's constant volcanic activity is caused by the gravitational pull of Jupiter and its two other moons, which generate powerful tides and enough heat to power the moon's lava flows.

Life on Earth may have started when lightning hit volcano eruptions
Lightning from volcanic eruptions in ancient times emitted extreme levels of nitrogen, which triggered the earliest lifeforms.
Nitrogen combined with lightning strikes reacts with oxygen and produces nitrogen oxide, creating an environment suitable for life to develop and sustain.
At Volcanic Eruptions in Iceland and Beyond, Efforts to Control Lava Remain Challenging
Lava flows from a volcano in southwest Iceland are threatening a town and a geothermal power plant.
Efforts to divert or stop lava flows have been attempted in the past, but the success rate is uncertain.
Scientists Say There May Be Life Under Mercury's Salt Glaciers
Evidence of salt glaciers on Mercury's surface suggest the possibility of subsurface areas that may be hospitable to life.
NASA's Mercury probe revealed the presence of volatile compounds on the planet, contrary to previous beliefs.
Layers of salt on Mercury's surface were formed from water vapors containing sodium that condensed into temporary pools of water.
