Landsat 9 Image Captures Iceland Volcano Lava
In November 2023 the Svartsengi volcanic system awakened after almost 800 years with a series of earthquakes that opened large cracks in the on Iceland’s Reykjanes Peninsula. An eruption on December 18th spewed lava away from the nearby coastal town of Grindavik, but the January 14, 2024 eruption sent lava directly toward the town.
