The image was acquired on  March 24, 2010, by the Advanced Land Imager (ALI) aboard NASA&#8217;s Earth  Observing-1 (EO-1) satellite. The lava fountains are orange-red, barely  visible at the 10-meter (33-foot) resolution of the satellite. The  scoria cones surrounding the fissure are black, as is the lava flow  extending to the northeast. White volcanic gases escape from the vent  and erupting lava, while a steam plume rises where the hot lava meets  snow. (The bright green color along the edge of the lava flow is an  artifact of the sensor.)

It is my view that, if a volcano  was about to erupt, such a barrier as a glacier would offer little  resistance. It is my view that some of the more vehement  environmentalists would and will use any device, however inaccurate, to  promote their agenda.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Posted by Donald W.

Therefore let&#8217;s just do our best to maintain this beautiful planet for  our sakes, and science alone gives us a clue as to what to do.

But then I notice in examining the data<br \/>\nthat this 344,109 is a division of a larger figure that had been rounded  to the nearest million or billion or whatever. This gives an impression  of exactitude to a number that was once a wild estimate. Very clever.<br \/>\nBut they musn&#8217;t go too far.

This  eruption must have produced an unbelievable amount of volcanic ash to  disrupt air service as it has.<br \/>\nI am sure all except the very youngest of us will remember the Mount St.  Helens eruption some years ago. I was living at a farm in southern  Alberta then, and when I got up the next morning everything was covered  in volcanic ash-the ground, cars, buildings, everything. But I don&#8217;t  remember anything mentioned on the news about airlines cancelling their  flights. This eruption must have made Mount St. Helens pale by  comparison!<br \/>\nI salute the courage of those who got close enough to the volcano to  take those awesome photos.<br \/>\nFor years I have been fascinated with Iceland ever since I read an  article about its having one of the lowest crime rates in the world.  While the country is getting so much media attention, I hope we take the  opportunity to learn why the Icelandic people get along so well, and  make use of that knowledge in our own society.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Posted by Stan Anderson April 19, 10 01:32 PM<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div>644<\/div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<p>May GOD bless and protect  all living creatures.
