An orbital view of a small eruption of Shiveluch volcano on the Kamchatka Peninsula in Russia. Gas and steam vent from the volcano. The peak of the mountain is brown as snow has melted away and replaced with ash. This orbital view was taken by a member of Expedition 14 aboard the International Space Station.

One of Russia’s largest and most active volcanoes erupted Friday sending ash more than 10,000 feet into the air. Officials said a much larger eruption is “likely”.

Shiveluch (also spelled Sheveluch) is one of the largest and most active volcanoes on Russia’s Kamchatka Peninsula. It has been spewing ash and steam intermittently—with occasional dome collapses, pyroclastic flows, and lava flows, as well—for the past decade.
