A thick plume of ash rose from the Merapi Volcano on November 10, 2010, when the
Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA’s Terra satellite 
captured this photo-like image. The image provides the most cloud-free satellite
view of the eruption to date. A dark brown streak down the southern face of the 
volcano is ash and other volcanic material deposited by a pyroclastic flow or lahar.

Though still erupting and dangerous on November 10, the eruption was quieter than
it had been the previous week. The ash plume caused flight cancellations in both
Jakarta and Yogyakarta, reported CNN. As of November 10, the eruption had killed
at least 156 and displaced about 200,000.
