Scientific paper

Io's dynamism makes it a uniquely exciting target for future exploration. It has much to teach us about the fundamental process of tidal heating, about large-scale volcanic processes, and about basic planetary physics. Many questions remain, and most of these can be addressed with future missions to the Jovian system, and improved UV instrumentation on large near-earth telescopes. Large groundbased telescopes (for good spatial resolution) and medium to small groundbased telescopes (for good temporal resolution), also have important contributions to make.
