The La Soufrière volcano has produced multiple explosive eruptions over the past week, blanketing the island of Saint Vincent in volcanic ash and propelling ash and gas high into the atmosphere over the Caribbean sea. On Saturday, April 10, NASA's Terra satellite passed over the volcano, capturing observations of the volcanic plume with its Multi-angle Imaging SpectroRadiometer (MISR) instrument.
