Shiveluch—Kamchatkan volcanoes

Shiveluch volcano anchors the northern end of a volcanic chain of more than 100 volcanoes covering the Kamchatkan Peninsula. It is one of the most active volcanoes along the Pacific Rim. In 2001, astronauts aboard the International Space Station Alpha looked north toward Shiveluch’s scarred southern slope to get a unique perspective of the impressive cluster of volcanoes in the Klyuchevskaya group and Shiveluch.
