Semisopochnoi Island is uninhabited, and the volcanic eruption poses no immediate danger to people.
However, volcanic ash rising from the Aleutians could be problematic for trans-Pacific aircraft travelling between Asia and North America.
Volcanic ash – tiny rock fragments – can create significant harm to aeroplanes that fly through them or boat and automobile engines that ingest ash-filled air.
Volcanic ash is hard and abrasive, and can quickly cause significant wear to various aeroplane parts such as propellers, turbo-compressor blades, and even cockpit windows.
