In which year was the moon, on which the volcanic feature Reiden Patera is located, discovered ?
Reiden Patera Reiden Patera is a volcanic feature on Jupiter's moon Io. It was first detected by the "Galileo" SSI Team during the spacecraft Galileo's first orbit around Jupiter, initially detected as a hotspot. It was once thought that the activity there had stopped or waned below the limits of the spacecraft's Solid State Imager or Near-Infrared Mapping Spectrometer. However, it was noticed in 2002 that Reiden Patera has darkened considerably since the 24th orbit of "Galileo". It has been spouting bright red pyroclastic deposits of its own. It is located at and is 70 kilometers in diameter. It is named after a Japanese thunder god ("Raijin" in current English nomenclature). Asha Patera can be found to the east, and Kami-Nari Patera can be found to the north.
Armalcolite Armalcolite is a titanium-rich mineral with the chemical formula (Mg,Fe)TiO. It was first found at Tranquility Base on the Moon in 1969 and is named for Armstrong, Aldrin and Collins, the three Apollo 11 astronauts. Together with tranquillityite and pyroxferroite, it is one of three new minerals that were discovered on the Moon. Armalcolite was later identified at various locations on Earth and has been synthesized in the laboratory. The synthesis requires low pressures, high temperatures and rapid quenching from about 1,000 °C to the ambient temperature. Armalcolite breaks down to a mixture of magnesium-rich ilmenite and rutile at temperatures below 1,000 °C, but the conversion slows down with cooling. Because of this quenching requirement, armalcolite is relatively rare and is usually found in association with ilmenite and rutile, among other minerals.
