Explanation:
A volcano on Krakatoa is still erupting. Perhaps most famous for the powerfully
explosive eruption in 1883 that killed tens of thousands of people, ash from a
violent eruption might also have temporarily altered Earth's climate as long as
1500 years ago. In 1927, eruptions caused smaller Anak Krakatau to rise from
the sea, and the emerging volcanic island continues to grow at an average rate
of 2 cm per day. The latest eruption of Anak Krakatau started in 2008 April and
continues today. In this picture, Anak Krakatau is seen erupting from Rakata,
the main island of the Krakatoai group. High above, stars including the Big
Dipper are clearly apparent.
