Satellite view of volcanic fog from Kilauea volcano swirling around the Hawaiian Islands.
December 9, 2009 - Satellite view of volcanic fog, also known as vog, from Kilauea volcano swirling around the Hawaiian Islands. Vog is formed when sulfur dioxide gas emitted from a volcano reacts with oxygen and water vapor. The reactions form tiny drops of sulfuric acid and other sulfates, which create a visible haze.
