Description
English: On March 26, 2015 the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) aboard NASA�s Aqua satellite captured a true color image of activity at Shiveluch, one of the largest and most active volcanoes on Russia�s Kamchatka Peninsula. At the time this image was captured, the ash plume was rising from the caldera then being blown to the southeast, then to the south by strong winds. Where ash fell from the plume and landed, it colored the white snow a dirty, dark grey. Evidence of the path of previous ash plumes was likewise written on the snow in gray. To the north, two plumes appear to form a �V� a most apt letter for the restless �volcano�.
