Astronaut Kimiya Yui captured from ISS Mt. Fuji and Hoei Crater from directly above. The large depression on the right side of Mt. Fuji is the Hoei Crater, a flank vent formed during the great Hoei eruption of 1707.
Mt. Fuji is the highest mountain in Japan at 3776m, and is an active stratovolcano that last erupted in 1707-1708. Mt. Fuji’s exceptionally symmetrical cone is a well-known symbol of Japan and it is frequently depicted in art and photographs, as well as visited by sightseers and climbers. It was added to the World Heritage List as a Cultural Site in 2013.
The local scenery on the ground is as follows.
