Geology.com is a very good informational Web site. I recommend patronage. (I don't have any association with the site.) The News section has a lot of interesting items and is very up-to-date.

Dumb mistake! I titled this “Katmai from the air”; this is actually/obviously a satellite image (probably Landsat). So it should be “Katmai from space”.

My family lived in Hawaii from 1956-1960, Marine brat. In our last year there my Mother and Father took me out of school (6th grade) for extended forays to the other islands aboard a LST.
I had the privilege of becoming a "Halemaumau Pooped Pedestrian" when we visited the Big Island. A certificate stating that was given to those who made a walking trip up to the crater. This is a huge deep crater. I still have the certificate.

This was an eye-opener:
An eruption the size of Novarupta would ground commercial jet traffic across the North American continent.
