At 00:25:08 UT the Mars Webcam takes this new image of the ongoing phenomenon on the Arsia Mons volcano.
This image is number 60 in a series of 99 photos!
Throughout the series we can see the plume from different angles at the time of sunrise, preventing us from appreciating the length of the entire plume. Interestingly, there is a sort of fainter secondary plume that fades as the view gets more lateral towards the end of the shots.
I am currently still analyzing the entire sequence but will provide more details soon.
