The eruption of the Grímsvötn volcano in Iceland is the country's most powerful in decades.
NASA, with its Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) and Terra satellites, has brilliantly captured the havoc inducing volcano from space. The images are of the volcanic ash, which has made its way from Iceland to England and across Europe. This is of course not the first time NASA's satellites have captured natural disasters from space. Here are a look at a few photos of the volcano.

Pretty spectacular, although an unfortunate time for Icelanders. In that article I missed a sub-link that I am going to post here, the photos are awesome and devastating.
