An uptick in seismic activity on the volcanic island of Santorini has raised concerns about a potential eruption.
NASA's Juno spacecraft has spotted the most powerful volcanic eruption ever seen on the solar system's most volcanic body, the Jovian moon Io.
He recalled that "in 2011 we saw a similar activity, which lasted 14 months and did not lead to a volcanic eruption" ...
For decades, scientists believed that magma chambers beneath volcanoes were transient, forming before an eruption and then ...
Satellites have managed to detect faint electromagnetic signals generated by ocean tides, suggesting that space-born sensors ...
Though the volcano’s magma chambers could hold enough material for a caldera-forming event, none of them are likely to erupt soon.
Magma build-up activity in the region of a huge underwater volcano named the Axial Seamount just 300 miles off the US coast ...
Loki Patera is 202 kilometres (126 mi) in diameter, covers 20,000 sq km (7,700 sq mi), and was the largest volcanic feature found on Io until these new observations revealed the hot spot in the south ...
A seismic survey challenges the long-standing belief that only active volcanoes have large magma bodies sitting beneath them.
A new study has found surprising evidence of large bodies of magma lurking beneath long-dormant volcanoes in the Cascade ...
Since completing its primary science objectives in orbit of Jupiter, Juno has been conducting flybys of the Jovian moons Io, ...
Africa is broken. It is being dissected by the famous East African Rift which extends over a length of 5000 km along the eastern side of Africa and seems poised to destroy Africa as we know it.
