Deep under the Pacific Ocean and along the Ring of Fire sits a volcano that suddenly came to life in March 2009.
The eruption captured by the images above occurred just miles off the coast of Tonga, a chain of islands north of New Zealand in the Pacific Ocean. They sit on a fault line that is extremely active, and when a 4.4-magnitude earthquake shook the islands in 2009, residents thought nothing of it.
