Consider that we could put all of mankind's power, ALL OF IT, to stopping a simple venting of ash as this, and we'd fail. All our might, nothing compared to the gentlest of volcanic events.
And of course, awesome looking as always, Mother Nature.
Mexico's Popocatepetl Volcano erupts, sending a plume of ash almost three miles into the air and giving seismic needles the jitters.
