TL;DR Summary

Russia's tallest volcano, Klyuchevskoy, erupted violently, spewing a 1,000-mile-long plume of dust and ash into the air. The eruption reached a maximum height of 7.5 miles above Earth's surface and prompted the temporary grounding of planes in the area. Satellite images captured the eruption plume, showing the red lava plume and grey smoke against the blue-colored clouds. The eruption has since subsided, and it is unlikely to have a significant impact on the ozone layer.
