We should build a thermal power plant there and send the energy here.

What a pockmarked moon. Clearasil should help with that.

Which, like the sun is dated’- via radioactive dating - as 4.5 billion years old. Which would basically infer a perpetual source of volcanic energy yet presumably not by fusion

We must tax Americans to stop “Lunar Warming” on Io.

Just run a few extension cords from there to here and we’re all set.

Man’s burning of fossil fuels has even caused global warming on Io.

This is interesting because we have in the Solar System moons with very long term self-heating, a moon with a thick atmosphere, several with liquid water (infused with ammonia, but, still...), complex organic compounds, a planet with our type of life...

Most suns we can appropriately study seem to have smaller bodies around them, and the estimate is that there are around 2x10^23 stars in the universe. A conservative estimate would then be 1x10^24 large moons and planets.
