Sarychev Peak is one of the most active volcanoes in the Kuril Island chain, and it is located on the northwestern end of Matua Island. View faces west.
Français : De façon fortuite, une orbite de la station spatiale internationale a permis à ses astronautes d'observer les phases précoces de l'éruption du Sarytchev, sur l'île Matua, dans les Kouriles (Russie), le 12 juin 2009. Le Sarychev est l'un des volcans les plus actifs de l'archipel.

Deutsch: Eruption des Vulkans Sarytschew auf der Kurilen-Insel Matua im Fernen Osten Russlands am 12. Juni 2009, aufgenommen aus der ISS.
Ελληνικά: Μία τυχαία τροχιά του Διεθνούς Διαστημικού Σταθμού επέτρεψε αυτήν την εκπληκτική θέα του ηφαιστείου Сарычева (Νησιά Курильские, Ρωσία βορειοανατολικά της Ιαπωνίας) σε ένα πρώιμο στάδιο της έκρηξης στις 12 Ιουνίου, 2009. Η βουνοκορφή Сарычева είναι μία από τις πιο ενεργές στα νησιά Курильские, και τοποθετείται στην βορειοανατολική άκρη του νησιού Ματούα, το οποίο στην τοπική γλώσσα σημαίνει στόμα της κόλασης.
