New island that emerged from the ocean off Japan is now visible from space
A newly-formed island off the coast of Iwo Jima in the Pacific Ocean was spotted in satellite images after it emerged during an underwater volcanic eruption at the end of October.
A newborn island that recently emerged from the Pacific Ocean after an underwater volcanic eruption is now visible from space, images from the European Space Agency (ESA) reveal. The satellite images show the new landmass sitting around 0.6 mile (1 kilometer) off the coast off Japan’s Iwo Jima island.
The submerged volcano began erupting on Oct. 21, with activity ramping up over the next 10 days. By Oct. 30, explosions were taking place every few minutes, according to a translated statement. The eruption threw large lumps of rock into the air, and shot a jet of gas and ash over 160 feet (50 meters) almost vertically above the water’s surface.
Nah, this is all bullshit. Our Natives discovered it way back when they sailed past on their way to Japan.
Oh yeah our Natives sat waiting in their canoes as Gayotearoa was formed by a volcano, to hurry things up Maui did a bit of fishing and hauled up the south island and the 1st edition of that well known book ” how to avoid answering police questions if you’ve accidentally killed your baby”, this famous book was greatly updated by the professors in the Kahui family recently, LMFAO 😅😅😅
Japan better be careful that the Chinese don’t claim the new island.
No doubt some cretin will use this as proof of climate change.
