Something Exploded at the Bottom of the Ocean and It Cracked Open Earth

Science Discoveries

Volcanic eruptions are not a pleasant geological activity. From Mount Tamobora and Mount Krakatoa in Indonesia to Mount Pelée in Martinique, our planet has had more than its fair share of deadly volcanoes, leading to thousands of deaths. Some volcanic eruptions can be more disastrous than even an atomic bomb. Scientists are constantly exploring seismic activities under the Earth’s crust to prepare us for earthquakes or their more deadly sibling, underwater eruptions. Between 2018 and 2022, two powerful underwater volcanoes erupted in the Southern Pacific Ocean and the Indian Ocean. On the surface, these eruptions only seemed to have led to the loss of lives and properties. However, their effect is much more than this
