Incandescent bombs ejected from Fuego’s summit vent impact the upper flanks on 20 February 2020. The ballistic trajectories are visible at night with initial velocities reaching several hundred meters per second. This photo is taken from Observatorio del Volcán de Fuego (OVFGO), Panimaché Uno, Chimaltenango, below the SW flank.
