Europas ocean, artwork
Europas ocean. Artwork based on astronomical research studying the frozen surface of Europa, one of the four largest moons of Jupiter. A cutaway view of the ice crust covering Europas liquid ocean fills the lower frame. Jupiter is at upper right. Io, another of Jupiters moons, is at upper centre. A process similar to volcanism on Earth is producing eruptions on Europas surface. Evidence of these eruptions is the presence of magnesium sulphates on the surface, thought to originate from chloride salts from Europas oceans and sulphur that reaches Europa from volcanic eruptions on Io.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Europa's Ocean" showcases an exquisite artwork that is based on extensive astronomical research studying the frozen surface of Europa, one of Jupiter's four largest moons. The image presents a cutaway view of Europas ice crust, revealing its hidden liquid ocean in the lower frame while Jupiter majestically graces the upper right corner. Another moon of Jupiter, Io, can be seen at the upper center. The artwork beautifully captures a process akin to volcanism on Earth as eruptions dot Europa's surface. These eruptions are evidenced by the presence of magnesium sulphates scattered across its icy terrain. Scientists believe these salts originate from chloride salts present in Europa's oceans and sulphur carried over from volcanic activities on Io. Published in 2013, this stunning illustration not only highlights the intricate details and complexities within our solar system but also emphasizes the significance of planetary science and astrophysics in unraveling celestial mysteries. It serves as a testament to humanity's relentless pursuit of knowledge about distant worlds and their potential for harboring life-sustaining environments. This remarkable piece reminds us of both the beauty and scientific wonders that lie beyond our own planet, inviting us to ponder upon the vastness and diversity found within our cosmic neighborhood.
