Summary

The 50-km-long island of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umboi_Island" class="extiw" title="en:Umboi Island">Umboi Island</a>, the largest of the volcanic islands off the north coast of New Guinea, is seen in this Space Shuttle image with north to the upper right. A large 13 x 17 km caldera cuts the northern half of the island and is widely breached to the NE (top-center). Three youthful post-caldera cones with summit crater lakes (left-center) are visible rising above the smooth-surfaced caldera floor. The large eroded massif at the right-center is an older volcanic complex, as is the dissected northern tip of the island (upper left). Papua New Guinea
