Chile’s Volcano Calbuco erupted yesterday, about 600 miles south of Santiago, forcing 4,000 people to evacuate after a red alert was issued in the area. The first one since 1972, but thankfully there are no reports of missing people, injuries, or deaths.
Knowing there are no fatalities helps to enjoy the astonishing photos that were taken from the explosion. Thousands of volcano photos were shared on social media.
