STUNNING: Astronauts capture visuals of volcano Raikoke's eruption after remaining dormant for 100 years

In a visually stunning photo, astronauts aboard International Station (ISS) have captured volca Raikoke's vigorous eruption after staying dormant for over 100 years from 254 miles above Kuril Islands in Asia.

NASA has released breathtaking plume of ash rising from w-active volca stating that monitoring volcanic eruptions helps us understand how y affect aviation and climate.

Explaining Raikoke's eruption on June 22, NASA has said that while Raikoke's perpetually active neighbours on Kamchatka Peninsula erupt often, Raikoke - a small, oval-shaped island, last erupted in 1924 and before that in 1778.

As revealed by NASA, volcanic eruption occurred  around 4:00 a.m. local time on June 22, 2019, when a vast plume of ash and volcanic gases shot up from its 700-meter-wide crater and visuals by captured by several astronauts displaying he volcanic plume rising in a narrow column and n spreing out in a part of plume kwn as umbrella region.

Detailing reason for eruption, Michigan Tech Volcalogist Simon Carn said it may be eir due to wear changes or due to lava-seawater interaction.

“ ring of white puffy clouds at base of column might be a sign of ambient air being drawn into column and condensation of water vapour. Or it could be a rising plume from interaction between magma and seawater because Raikoke is a small island and flows likely entered water,” he said.

Volcalogists watch closely for plumes that reach stratosphere because y tend to stay aloft for longer than those that remain within troposphere as plumes reaching stratosphere have greatest effects on aviation and climate, as shared by NASA.
