Io is the innermost Galilean moon of Jupiter and is considered the most volcanically active body in our solar system. With the help of the Hubble Space Telescope’s (HST) on-board Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS), far-ultraviolet (FUV) images of Io have been captured for the past 20 years. The final goal of this project is to study the sulphur dioxide (SO2) distribution and volcanic activity on Io in FUV data taken in 1997/98 and 2013/14. The method used concerns the conversion of spectral Lyman-α intensity to SO2 density using algorithms implemented in MATLAB. As a result the SO2 distribution and volcanic activity on Io were determined and compared between the data collections. We found that the SO2 was higher in the images from 1997/98 compared to 2013/2014.
