"Volcano eruption leaves 170,000 passengers stranded in Indonesia" by @BBCNews - Some airports closed in Indonesia due to #VolcanicAsh from eruption of #AnakKrakatau. The ash made of pulverized rock is a hazard for jet engines which can melt it into glass which abrades and clogs the machinery. Anak Krakatau is feared for growing in the caldera of Krakatoa which exploded in 1883, similar to 2022 explosion of Hunga Tonga. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cvgy5k4n07ko #volcano #geology #weather #aviation #travel #avgeek

From the GeologyHub YT channel: a good briefing on the current Anak Krakatoa eruption. In summary: it's a significant eruption regionally speaking, but not of global concern.
