New satellite images released on January 18 show the damage from a volcanic eruption in Tonga. Maxar Technologies released aerial photographs of the Hunga Tonga Hunga Ha-apai volcano and Tonga's capital Nuku'alofa before and after its main eruption, which could be seen from space. Satellite images captured the spectacular eruption, with a plume of ash, steam, and gas rising like a giant mushroom above the South Pacific.
