About this work
STS084-712-003 (15-24 May 1997) --- Early morning sun highlights the volcanic features on Onekotan Island which is one of several volcanic islands in the Russian owned Kurile Island chain. Onekotan lies just south of Kamchatka. Two volcanoes are active on the island -- the small island surrounded by a moat-like lake in the south (Tao-Rusyr caldera) last erupted in 1952, and the cone-shaped peak at the north end of the island, Nemo peak, erupted in 1938.
