Earth’s northern lights are beautiful, but Jupiter’s auroras are extreme. Powered by Jupiter’s insane magnetic field—the strongest of any planet—these auroras are hundreds of times more energetic than Earth’s and emit powerful X-rays. The radiation around Jupiter is harsh enough to harm an unprotected human. Even Jupiter’s moon Io gets caught in the chaos, as its volcanoes spew charged particles that fuel the planet’s auroras.
