NASA offers satellite images of the coastline before and after Zalzala Jazeera ("Earthquake Island") appeared, as well as a stunning overhead shot of the new land, as captured by NASA's Earth Observing-1 satellite. The Sept. 24 quake's death toll now sits at more than 500; some 21,000 houses were destroyed, RT reports. (More NASA stories.)
