A series of earthquakes triggered a new eruption from a volcanic fissure on Iceland's Reykjanes Peninsula on the evening of Nov. 20, 2024. Multiple Earth-observing satellites captured views of the eruption from space and its aftermath, according to new imagery from NASA and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
