[:ja]ルカ・パルミタノ宇宙飛行士がISSから撮影したイタリア、エトナ山の噴火です。
イタリア・シチリア島にある欧州最大の活火山、エトナ山で9月24日に噴火が起き、マグニチュード3.3の地震が発生しました。この影響で同島のカターニア空港は閉鎖されました。カターニアでは、エトナ山から噴煙が高く噴出する様子が観測されています。イタリア国立地球物理学・火山学研究所によると、エトナ山は比較的頻繁に噴火を繰り返しており、今回は過去1ヵ月間に徐々に活動が活発化していました。

[Earthview Wonders] No.875: Mt. Etna Eruption🇮🇹
Astronaut Luca Parmitano captured from ISS the eruption of Mt. Etna, Italy.
Mt. Etna, the largest of Italy’s three active volcanoes, is spewing ash and lava once again, and began a new phase of eruptions. Mt. Etna on the island of Sicily has had historically recorded eruptions for the past 3,500 years and has been erupting continuously since September 2013 through. Lava flows, explosive eruptions with ash plumes, and Strombolian lava fountains commonly occur from its summit areas that include the Northeast Crater, the Voragine-Bocca Nuova complex, the Southeast Crater, and the New Southeast Crater.
The local scenery on the ground is as follows.
