Volcanic eruptions and a new method for prediction
Over the last month, volcanic eruptions have once again made headlines across the globe. One of the most active volcanoes in the world is Italy’s Mount Etna, and it has a very explosive history over the last 500,000 years.
On June 2, the volcano sent massive plumes of dust, ash and smoke over 20,000 feet into the air. According to Space.com, this is the 14th episode since last March. This last event was listed as a medium-sized eruption and sent tourists fleeing when the volcano suddenly erupted. Fortunately, the eruption was not a massive one, as it ended the same day. This recent event was Mount Etna’s biggest since 2021.
