NASA: It is happening now - Está sucediendo ahora - 10-5-10 - Eruption of Eyjafjallajökull Volcano. Iceland - Erupción del volcán Eyjafjallajökull. Islandia

1 - The plume of ash and steam rising from the Eyjafjallajökull volcano reached five to six kilometers (17,000 to 20,000 feet) into the atmosphere on May 10, 2010, when the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA’s Aqua satellite captured this image. The ash is blowing southeast over the North Atlantic Ocean. Volcanic ash from previous days closed airports in Ireland and Portugal on May 10, said CNN.

Red outlines the location of a hot spot (probably lava) on the summit of the volcano. Around the volcano is a landscape of black. Dark ash covers the snow on the volcano as well as the land farther away. Farms south of the erupting volcano reported that course ash fell throughout the day on May 10, said the Icelandic Met Office. The icecap east of the volcano—Myrdals-jökull—is painted with two black stripes that reveal where the wind blew concentrated plumes of ash in previous days.

The eruption at Iceland’s Eyjafjallajökull volcano began on March 20, 2010. Earthquakes beneath the volcano on May 10 indicate that magma is still flowing into the volcano for an ongoing eruption, said the Icelandic Met Office.

2 - Iceland’s Eyjafjallajökull volcano continued to emit a dense plume of ash and steam on May 7, 2010. The plume extends southeast from the volcano, but curves south beyond the lower edge of the image. The large image, which includes a wider area, reveals that the ash is blowing over the Atlantic Ocean west of Ireland. On Iceland, low-level winds pick up ash that had settled on the land. This plume of resuspended ash blows south from the island. The higher-elevation volcanic plume casts a dark shadow on the lower-elevation resuspended ash.

The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA’s Terra satellite captured this image on May 7, 2010. The large image is the highest-resolution version of the image, but the MODIS Rapid Response Team provides the image in additional resolutions.

Todos los días recibo fotos del Observatorio de la tierra de la NASA, las fotografías de los eventos de nuestro planeta.
En mi opinión, no estando de acuerdo con la opinión general de que Internet es el principal evento del siglo XX, la revolución, sin duda, la NASA hizo la tarea principal, sin la NASA no hay Internet.
No sólo eso, la NASA es responsable de la invención de muchos nuevos materiales, técnicas, procesos científicos, descubrimientos, aplicaciones de materiales.
Para mí, por lo tanto, es un placer regresar a través de usted, lo que ha dado dicha organización notable y sigue dando al mundo de los humanos.

Every day I receive photos of the NASA Earth Observatory , photographs of the events of our planet.
In my opinion, not agreeing with the general opinion that Internet is the main event of the twentieth century, the revolution, no doubt, NASA did the primary task, without NASA no Internet.
Not only that, NASA is responsible for the invention of many new materials, techniques, scientific processes, discoveries, applications materials.
For me, therefore, is a pleasure to return through you, what it has given this remarkable organization and continues to give to the world of humans.
