Giving new meaning to the lyrics of That's Amore, astronomers involved with the SETI organization have found a rather pizza-like occurrence on Io, a moon of Jupiter.

The moon now looks like a delicious pepperoni pie. This has caused the team to nickname Io the "pizza moon." If only moons were made out of cheese.
