Magma is both liquid and hot.
If it’s not, it’s a rock................

Is this one of those moons with oceans of liquid hydrocarbons, you know, from dead inter-planetary plankton and dinosaurs?

When I saw the first image, I thought “impossible”. Then I read the article.
The first pic is from New Horizons spacecraft as it flew by Jupiter on its way to Pluto. The second pic is from a ground based telescope. Still amazing from a ground based telescope.

‘With two primary mirrors measuring 8.4 m (~27.5 ft), it has a collecting area slightly greater than that of a 30-meter (98.4 ft) telescope.“
No it doesn’t.
Maybe it has the effective aperture (and thus resolving power) of a 30 meter telescope in one axis (direction of separation of the two individual telescopes) but not the effective area (and thus light gathering power).
Not slighting the optics accomplishment, which is amazing, but the writer didn’t even understand what the accomplishment is.

The reason was revealed in a sequel.
There’s a small, intelligent lifeform evolving on Europa that needs protection.......................
