Beg pardon if I mis-understood, but, the picture is not Shiprock (which is in the 4 corners area of the state.

This lava field is mid-south state, near White Sands.

There is also a large lava field up in the North of the state near the town of Capulin.

There is also the similar named El Malpais NM just south of Grants on Interstate 40. It is a large lava flow and some caves.
You have a lot of interesting areas near there concerning Navajo and Zuni culture and current tribal lands.

I did field work approximately 50 years ago there, so it is possible that I mixed up the site. My point was that the volcanic dikes that they are photographing from space are not ‘new’ revelations. I am sure that some reporter will try to make the case that the poor folks in NM are ‘doomed’ from an imminent eruption from Mt. Capulin.
