Ash and Lightning Above an Icelandic Volcano

Cool pictures of the Eyjafjallajökull Norway volcano eruption in April 2010. It's caused problems with flights as ash from the volcanic eruption in Iceland moves south. The volcano eruption has sparked a travel tourist boom in Norway...if you can get there! Geologists are unsure how much longer the Iceland eruption might last. "I hope the eruption continues for a while, because it is very good for business," Ingi Thor Jakobsson, manager of the nearby Hotel Ranga.
FACT: Iceland is the youngest land on earth due to all of the volcanic activity.
