Description: Shiveluch Volcano at Russia’s Kamchatka Peninsula at noon local time (00:00 Universal Time; GMT+12) on 06-11-2012, as observed by NASA’s Aqua satellite with Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS). The erupted volcano has sent a plume of ash over the Kamchatka Gulf. The plume has traveled about 90 kilometers toward the south-southeast, where a change in wind direction has began pushing the plume toward the east.
