NASA has released a satellite image showing Anak Krakatau, a volcano located between the Indonesian islands of Java and Sumatra, emitting ash and volcanic gases, according to a report from NASA Breaking News.

The image was captured on Sept. 5, 2026, using the Operational Land Imager (OLI) aboard the Landsat 8 satellite, NASA said.

According to NASA, eruptions are a regular occurrence at Anak Krakatau. The agency described much of the volcano's activity as relatively mild, though it noted that the volcano occasionally produces more significant eruptions.

NASA did not provide additional details in the excerpt regarding the scale of this particular eruption or any potential impact on surrounding communities.

Anak Krakatau, whose name translates to "Child of Krakatoa," is known for its history of volcanic activity in the region. NASA's Earth-observing satellites, including Landsat 8, are regularly used to monitor volcanic activity and other natural phenomena around the world.
