Animation showing a simulation of Galileo's seventh flyby of Jupiter's volcanic moon Io on January 17, 2002. The spacecraft approaches Io from the satellite's nightside, anti-Jovian hemisphere, makes its closest approach over the dusk terminator, passing over the active volcanoes Pele, Maasaw, and Mbali, then departs Io over its sunlit leading hemisphere.
