Among
the most dangerous is the almost-permanently active Ambrym Volcano. In
this pair of images captured on April 27, 2004, a large plume of volcanic
ash is blowing westward from the volcano, which appears at the center
right edge. The plume is mixing with clouds, and is more apparent as a
bright, reddish orange color in the false-color image (below). The large
image is the same spatial resolution (level of detail), but shows a wider
area.
