Image of the Day September 26, 2018
This image obtained from WorldView-2 displays a newly created island as a result of a volcanic eruption off the coast of Japan in 2016. You can see the smoke from the volcano and small patch of life(green circle) on the island. This image is of immense importance because scientists can study how islands form. Furthermore, scientists can remotely study how life can be created on islands without physically interfering with the process.
