Tvashtar Paterae
Tvashtar Paterae compose an active volcanic region of Jupiter's moon Io located near its north pole. It is a series of paterae, or volcanic craters. It is named after Tvashtar, the Hindu god of blacksmiths.〔
Tvashtar was studied by the Galileo spacecraft over several years. During this time, a long, high curtain of lava was seen to erupt from one patera, a lake of superheated silicate lava erupted in the largest patera, and finally a plume of gas burst out, rising above Io and blanketing areas as far away as .
An eruption on Tvashtar on February 26, 2007 was photographed by the New Horizons probe as it went past Jupiter ''en route'' to Pluto. The probe observed an enormous high plume from the volcano, with an as-yet unexplained filamentary structure made clearly visible by the background light from the sun.〔(Mission Photos: An Eruption on Io ) (New Horizons) Retrieved on February 28, 2007.〕
