Here's a new view of Anak Krakatau, the collapsed Indonesian volcano that generated the 22 December tsunami that devastated local coastlines.
The picture was assembled from radar images acquired on Wednesday by the ICEYE-X2 satellite.
This is a small innovative spacecraft from Finland that will soon be part of a large orbiting network of sensors.

Satellite operator Iceye is now making videos that can show the Earth's surface through cloud and at night.
The short, 20-second movies are an extension of the standard still radar images it already produces.
In the examples released by the Finnish company on Monday, planes are seen taxiing across Britain's Heathrow airport and heavy plant vehicles are observed working in a Utah mine.
The videos are said to be a first for a commercial space operator.

European "new space" company Iceye has demonstrated a radar technique in its small satellites that has in the past been performed only by the biggest of spacecraft.
Called Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSar), it involves making repeat images of a location to detect millimetric changes in height.
The approach has myriad applications, from tracking subsidence to tracing ground ruptures from Earthquakes.
Iceye's satellites weigh under 100kg.
