For me one thing I didn;t expect was the beauty of Jupiter in Io’s skybox. Not that I didn’t expect it to be there, but that I didn’t expect it to be so detailed and move across the sky so dramatically. I remember that at one point I was trying to get my orientation by finding Jupiter in the sky and I couldn’t because it had passed below the horizon! I sat for a good thirty minutes waiting for it to come back and its rise was gorgeous.

IO is the best. Here is a low-res upload of a timelapse I took of Jupiter. I was pleasantly surprised when the moon rose right in front of my shot.
