Summary[edit]

Description
English: An April 1968 vertical aerial photo looks down on the new 2-km-wide island of Surtsey less than one year after eruptive activity ceased. Iceland's newest island was formed during eruptions from November 1963 until June 1967. Initial submarine eruptions rapidly produced a new island that became permanent after lava effusion began in 1964. Several other ephemeral islands around Surtsey that were not armored by lava are now eroded beneath the sea. Photo by National Aeronautical and Space Administration (NASA), 1968.
