Europe's most active volcano, Italy's Mount Etna, erupted on Sunday (Aug. 13) after weeks of puffing out odd smoke rings. Here is how it looked from space.
One of the most active volcanoes in the world, and certainly Europe's most active, put on a show late Sunday into Monday. Glowing lava shot from Mt. Etna as it belched steam, ash and gas. Aviation officials in Sicily were even forced to close the Catania Airport.
The Catania International Airport suspended all flight operations until 8 p.m. local time in Sicily due to the eruption and volcanic ash.
Mount Bagana emitted ashfall that has "contaminated water sources and damaged food gardens, leading to dysentery, skin and eye irritation."
