Rebuilding on a Lava Flow in La Palma  

Two years after the eruption of Cumbre Vieja in the Canary Islands, some roads have been reconstructed.  


Astronaut photograph ISS069-E-62382 was acquired on August 18, 2023, with a Nikon D5 digital camera using a focal length of 400 millimeters. Astronaut photograph ISS046-E-40929 was acquired on February 13, 2016, with a Nikon D4 digital camera using a focal length of 400 millimeters. The images are provided by the ISS Crew Earth Observations Facility and the Earth Science and Remote Sensing Unit, Johnson Space Center. The images were taken by a member of the Expedition 69 crew and the Expedition 46 crew. The images have been cropped and enhanced to improve contrast, and lens artifacts have been removed. The International Space Station Program supports the laboratory as part of the ISS National Lab to help astronauts take pictures of Earth that will be of the greatest value to scientists and the public, and to make those images freely available on the Internet. Additional images taken by astronauts and cosmonauts can be viewed at the NASA/JSC Gateway to Astronaut Photography of Earth. Caption by Cadan Cummings, Jacobs, JETS II Contract at NASA-JSC.
