Several scoria cones and lava flows of the Elmenteita Badlands volcanic center are visible in this 5 November 2019 Sentinel-2 satellite image (N is at the top; this image is approximately 24 km across). It contains scoria cones and lava flows of varying ages, some of which formed after the 10,000-year-old high-stand of Lake Elmenteita. Satellite image courtesy of Copernicus Sentinel Data, 2019.
