Night view of eruption of Alaid Volcano, CIS
A geologist at night silhouetted against the eruption of Alaid volcano in 1988. Alaid is 2339 metres high, and forms the bulk of Ostrova Atlasova, an island in the Kuril chain north of Japan. An explosive eruption is in progress at the cone, with volcanic bombs leaving trails of light in the sky. These are clots of liquid lava, typically 40-50cm in diameter, that are thrown from an erupting vent. They are seen forming a bright ring of impacts near the central crater

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the awe-inspiring night view of the eruption of Alaid Volcano in 1988. The silhouette of a brave geologist against the fiery backdrop adds a sense of scale and adventure to this remarkable scene. Standing tall at 2339 meters, Alaid dominates Ostrova Atlasova, an island located in the Kuril chain north of Japan. The explosive eruption unfolding before our eyes showcases nature's raw power as volcanic bombs soar through the sky, leaving mesmerizing trails of light behind them. These volcanic bombs are formed from clots of liquid lava, measuring around 40-50cm in diameter, forcefully ejected from the erupting vent. As they hurtle through space, they create a brilliant ring of impacts near the central crater. This image is a testament to both the beauty and danger that volcanoes possess. It serves as a reminder that while their eruptions can be devastating forces capable of reshaping landscapes, they also offer us glimpses into Earth's geological processes on an epic scale. Science Photo Library presents this striking photograph for all those fascinated by geology and volcanic phenomena alike. Let it transport you to that fateful night when Alaid unleashed its fury upon Kuril Island—an extraordinary moment frozen in time for us to marvel at and contemplate our planet's incredible natural wonders.
