This five-frame sequence of New Horizons images captures the giant plume from Io's Tvashtar volcano. Snapped by the probes Long Range Reconnaissance Imager (LORRI) as the spacecraft flew past Jupiter earlier this year, this first-ever movie of an Io plume clearly shows motion in the cloud of volcanic debris, which extends 330 kilometers (200 miles) above the moons surface. Only the upper part of the plume is visible from this vantage point  the plumes source is 130 kilometers (80 miles) below the edge of Io's disk, on the far side of the moon.

I am also looking forward to seeing if these work so that we can learn more about Europa...

I can get you a swim-spa for around 18 grand. 4 pumps, dual temperature, so you can have a swim area at 80 degrees and a hot tub at 104 if you wanted. And for you, a free cover.

Hmmm... If you are still selling next year, we may need to talk.

How quick is the transition from pool to spa and back again?

Instant. There's a removable barrier. So you caould be hot tubbin with your harem on one end of the spa at 104, and granny can be doing pilates in the swim area at 80 at the same time.

I've always wanted one of those newfangled cement ponds! I'll keep you in mind if you are still selling next year. Only one big purchase per year is our rule. So far it has kept us out of debt and growing the money...
