Description
English: Sicily (Oct. 28, 2002) — On the evening after the initial eruption of Mt. Etna on the Italian island of Sicily, U.S. Navy photographer Richard W. Williams captures this image of a river of lava flowing down the side of the volcano. Dark clouds of pyroclastic ash from the eruption stretched as far as Africa this week and were visible from space during continued volcanic activity. Experts indicate the earthquakes felt subsequent to the initial eruption were not necessarily related to Etna's rumblings and were optimistic that the lava flows would soon be brought under control.
