Tonga Volcano - Full GOES Satellite timelapse animation from Jan 14-18

Описание к видео Tonga Volcano - Full GOES Satellite timelapse animation from Jan 14-18

Shows a timelapse animation starting Friday Jan 14, the day before the big eruption extending to Jan 18th well after the eruption.
Tonga's main island will sometimes show as a little white blob around coordinates S21.2 W175.2 and the eruption is just above and to the left of that.
On Friday 14th can see there is an ongoing earlier eruption spewing ash clouds over the whole area to the ENE. This is the eruption you'll see in some videos claiming to be from navy or research ships and it is responsible for destroying the center of the two islands joined back in 2014-2015 eruption.
To be clear, this is the day before the big eruption.
By Saturday 00:00 UTC that ash cloud has dissipated entirely and the skies are clear, and the volcano is visibly quiet.
Near 04:00UTC it starts with another medium sized eruption that spews another big ash cloud out for about 35-40 minutes, spreading it fast enough to appear over Tonga 40 miles away.
Between 04:30 and 4:40 there are two larger explosions, then a couple minutes later the big KABOOM that put a shockwave all the way around the globe.

The audio from Tonga itself indicated a bang, then another bang a few seconds later, then a couple minute pause, then some rumbling, more rumbling, and then a big KABOOOM.

Animation created by the GOES 8 West viewer, but because you can only stretch the start time, and it always extends until *now*, the further we are from the date the harder it has to work to create the animation. Wait a couple more days and it'll just blow up trying to create the animation.
