A satellite image captured during an eruption of Russia's Klyuchevskoy volcano shows a dramatic plume of smoke stretching over 1,000 miles, with twin lava flows resembling devil horns, highlighting the volcano's intense activity within the Pacific Ring of Fire.
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.
Russia's tallest volcano, Klyuchevskoy, erupted violently, spewing a 1,000-mile-long cloud of dust and ash into the air. The eruption reached a maximum height of 7.5 miles above Earth's surface and prompted the grounding of planes and evacuation of schools due to increased air pollution. Satellite images captured the massive plume, which eventually stretched up to 1,400 miles long. Although the eruption only lasted a few days, it had no significant impact on the ozone layer. The Kamchatka Peninsula, where the volcano is located, is part of the Pacific Ring of Fire.
Russia's tallest volcano, Klyuchevskoy, erupted violently, spewing a 1,000-mile-long cloud of dust and ash into the air. The eruption reached a maximum height of 7.5 miles above Earth's surface and prompted the grounding of planes and evacuation of schools due to increased air pollution. Satellite images captured the massive eruption plume, which stretched across Russia and the Pacific Ocean. While significant, the eruption plume is still smaller than some of the largest ever recorded. Unlike previous eruptions, Klyuchevskoy's latest eruption is not expected to have a significant impact on the ozone layer.
