THE BOGOSLOF VOLCANO

Bogoslof Island orAgasagook Island is the summit of a submarinestratovolcano at the south edge of theBering Sea, 35 miles (56 km) northwest ofUnalaska Island of theAleutian Island chain.The first known emergence of the island above sea level was recorded during an underwater eruption in 1796. Since then, parts of the island have been successively added and eroded.About 2,000 feet (610 m) northwest of Bogoslof, a small volcanic dome emerged in 1883 from the same stratovolcano and has become a stack rock formation known as Fire Island.

02:08 UTC on 20 February 2017. A significant explosive eruption began at Bogoslof volcano. Seismic and infrasound data showed a series of short-lived explosive pulses through 02:45 UTC; seismicity decreased slightly since then. This recent satellite image shows a cloud as high as 25,000 ft and was a lucky shot taken as our satellites passed overhead.
