Is Yellowstone Ready to Blow?

advertisement

If you've ever been to Yellowstone National Park, you've undoubtedly waited for one of the most photographed and viewed natural phenomena to take place, Old Faithful erupting on it's not-too-regular schedule. But if scientists are to be believed, Old Faithfuls act would be a spit in the ocean compared to the eruption of Yellowstone's caldera.
Will the Yellowstone volcano erupt anytime soon? Probably not, but a report in Live Science boggled my mind with the immensity of hot magma boiling beneath the seemingly pastoral serenity of Yellowstone.
