ICELAND-VOLCANO-AVIATION
This NASA Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA?s Terra satellite on May 16, 2010 shows an ash plume from the Eyjafjallajokull Volcano, in Iceland. Several British and Irish airports closed Sunday as the ash cloud returned, drifting south and east following fresh eruptions from the Icelandic volcano. Manchester Airport in northwest England and Dublin Airport, among the 20 busiest in Europe, were among those affected by the cloud, with the ash levels deemed too dangerous to fly through. Manchester -- Britain's busiest airport outside London, where airports were so far unaffected -- was among a host of northern British airports to shut from 1200 GMT to 1800 GMT, including all those in Northern Ireland. Dublin, Ireland's main airport, was to close from 1800 GMT until at least 0800 GMT Monday. AFP PHOTO/NASA/HANDOUT/RESTRICTED TO EDITORIAL USE
