Outstanding radar image of the #Shiveluch #volcano.
#Radar data is not affected by cloud cover or rain. It can be acquired day or night, and often penetrates snow down to bedrock, unlike optical data (e.g. #Sentinel2, #landsat ).
Acquired on April 17, it shows the immense collapse of the crater, and potentially a growing lava lobe.
Kudos to @RaphaelGrandin and Alina Shevchenko for their work in the area and Capella Space for providing the image.
