The Io Satellite
The electrical currents in the liquid metal interior of Jupiter might be the source of that enormous impact, the largest so far in the solar system, and of its associated belt of trapped protons and electrons. The charged particles were ejected by the Cloud from the surface of the planet, captured and accelerated by the solar wind and projected back. Vast number of them were trapped far about the cloud and were condemned to bounce from pole to pole until by chance they encountered some high-altitude atmospheric molecules and were removed from the radiation belt.
The Io satellite moved in an orbit close to Jupiter, thus it entered through the midst of this intense radiation, creating millions of cascades of water particles which in turn generated violent bursts of oceans of energy. The immense columns of water influenced as well eruptive processes on the surface of Jupiter. The destruction of the biggest planet begun.
