As a volcanic eruption cast a pall of ash over the Caribbean island of St. Vincent, tens of thousands fled – but eyebrows were raised after the island nation’s PM said they weren’t going anywhere without a Covid shot. The La Soufriere volcano on the eastern Caribbean island of St. Vincent erupted on Friday, sending a column of ash 10km into the sky. With some 16,000 people living in the ‘red... 

In the early hours of Sunday, a volcano in southwest Iceland unleashed a cascade of lava toward the fishing town of Grindavik, compelling the evacuation of residents following a series of hundreds of earthquakes that rattled the region overnight. This dramatic event unfolded less than a month after a powerful eruption had already occurred in the same vicinity. The seismic activity on Saturday, often... 

Despite decades of research, scientists remain divided about many of the processes taking place beneath our planet’s surface, including details about the churning of molten metals in the Earth’s core which creates the magnetic field that protects the planet from deadly solar radiation. Two massive formations of incredibly hot molten rock the size of continents are lurking underneath Earth’s... 

The Philippines’ Taal Volcano has received the fourth out of five alert levels, that now stands at ‘hazardous eruption imminent.’ The Taal has emitted a massive column of steam and ash, prompting evacuation of nearby settlements. The Taal volcano erupted on Sunday, emitting a large column of steam and smoke, and subjecting the surroundings to a heavy ashfall. The eruption prompted the evacuation... 

Is an eruption of one or more of the major volcanoes in the northwest United States imminent? In recent days, very large earthquake swarms have been reported at Mt. Hood, Mt. Rainier and Mt. St. Helens. It is certainly not unusual for each of these volcanoes to experience earthquake swarms from time to time, but right now we are seeing this happen at all three volcanoes simultaneously, and this comes... 

Over the past week, our planet has been hit by large earthquake after large earthquake, and according to Volcano Discovery there are 38 volcanoes around the world that are erupting right now. We have seen a dramatic spike in global seismic activity that is unlike anything that we have seen in ages, and that is why what is going on at Yellowstone is so incredibly alarming. Geologists tell us that... 

RT spoke to Sam Cossman who climbed into the active Marum volcano on Ambrym Island in the Pacific. His team came back with extensive footage and images, including stunning videos made from a special quadrocopter drone that hovered inside the volcano. To make his descent into the volcano’s funnel, Sam Cossman, 33, wore a custom-made industrial heat suit that can sustain well over +1,600 °C. However,... 

A NASA spacecraft sees a volcanic explosion on Jupiter’s third-largest moon. Incredible footage of an eruption on Io, Jupiter’s third moon, considered the most volcanic place in the solar system, has been released by the US space agency. The video, taken by the New Horizons spacecraft, pictures a drama that unfolded more than 6.2 million km away from Earth back in 2007. NASA only made it public... 

The highest active volcano in Eurasia, Klyuchevskaya Sopka has started to erupt, officials with the Institute of Volcanology and Seismology said. On the night of October 15, there was light seen over the summit of the volcano indicating a blowout of lava in its crater, Vesti.ru reports. Experts believe the release of ash to the height of 6 feet above sea level may start any moment. Lava flows on the... 

High-resolution photos taken by NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter show lava coils on the Martian surface in a region of valleys near the Red Planet’s equator. The recently found patterns were first discovered by graduate student Andrew Ryan of Arizona State University who studied possible interactions of lava flows and floods of water in the Elysium volcanic province of Mars. “I was interested...
