Orbiting Radar Reveals Historic Eruption: NISAR Tracks Centuries-Dormant Kamchatka Volcano

In an extraordinary demonstration of modern Earth-observation capabilities, the joint NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar (NISAR) satellite has compiled a detailed time-lapse tracking the revival of Russia’s Krasheninnikov volcano. Situated on the rugged Kamchatka Peninsula, the dual-peaked volcano had remained largely quiet since approximately 1550. That nearly five-century slumber abruptly ended after a powerful 8.8-magnitude undersea […]
