Title : Lava Flow on Bezymianny Volcano
Caption :
The active Russian volcano Bezymianny in Kamchatka shows an ongoing flow from a vent on the side of the volcano on Dec. 28, 2000. This image is showing the volcano's topography (blue) and a thermal infrared image showing the ''hot spot'' (red) in great detail. The ''zoom lens'' aboard NASA's satellite is providing never-before seen views of active volcanic eruptions. These observations provide a detailed look into the eruptive history. Lava flows, hot mudflows, and other details of eruption activity that cannot be seen using other techniques are revealed.
