  1. 🦖☄️ Paleontologist Michael Benton and meteoriticist Monica Grady reconstruct the final day of the #Cretaceous in real-time – from the silent #asteroid visible as a #star, to the fireball and incineration, to mega-tsunamis, global #wildfires, acid #rain, and a decade-long #winter that snuffed out three-quarters of #Earth’s species.

  2. 🪨🔥 #Earth’s inner core reaches about 5,500°C, roughly as hot as the surface of the #sun.

    Scientists from UC #SantaCruz and Sun Yat-sen University calculated this using diamond anvil cells and shock-wave experiments that simulate the extreme pressures deep underground. The outer core’s liquid #iron also generates #Earth’s magnetic field, which protects all #life from #solar #radiation.

  3. Predicting Volcanic Eruptions

    People have long hoped to reliably predict volcanic eruptions. An automated system at Piton de la Fournaise in France has been doing so since 2014 with an impressive 92% accuracy. The tool, called Jerk, makes its predictions based on real-time measurements of subtle ground movements associated with magma fracturing rock on its way to the surface. Its predictions have ranged from minutes to hours before the start of an eruption.

    So far, the team has only tested the system at one volcano, but they are working to install a second version at Mount Etna, where they’ll see whether other volcanoes produce a similar signal ahead of eruption. If so, Jerk could provide valuable warnings in populated areas and give geologists an automated alternative for monitoring remote volcanoes.

    To learn more, check out the team’s open access paper and this interview with the team leaders over at Gizmodo. (Image credit: F. Beauducel; research credit: F. Beauducel et al.; via Gizmodo)

  4. Plot of Netflix series LA PALMA:

    A mountain of fire is cast into the sea....

    This is the prophecy in Revelation 8:8~9.

    Your perspective from the island is appreciated! I wish you well.... and my prayer is for you, because the plot has not yet been fulfilled.

    The future event: a mountain of fire is cast into the sea, causing a tsunami. A third of the sea creatures die and a third of the ships are destroyed.

    This is the second trumpet. Revelation 8:8 is the plot of this series.

  11. Do they know something?

    Netflix released a limited series, titled:

    La Palma

    "A Norwegian family vacationing on La Palma faces disaster when a young researcher discovers alarming signs of an imminent volcanic eruption."

  12. New land formed in 2021 when lava reached the coastline of La Palma. Cooled by the waters, the stone hardened, altering the dimensions of the island.

    Wow.... you were there! In your second image at #Tenerife, I see no trees, no plants, no animals, and no people. Were you on the volcano?

    Here is a view of the nearby island: La Palma. Lava flowed in 2021.

  18. #OTD in 1980, Mount St. Helens erupted (or rather, exploded) most violently. I was nine years old and the tragedy of lost life escaped me. I just found it all absolutely fascinating. 42 years later, I was able to visit the place (albeit not long enough, of course) — and was just as fascinated by the recovering landscape.

  23. Last year when a friend and I visited Coldwater Visitor Center at Mount St Helens National Volcanic Monument, we heard the crying of a family's small child who didn't want to go closer to Mt St Helens, worried it could erupt. While it can and eventually will happen again, it's well monitored. For my friend's and my safety, I had already checked USGS Cascades Volcano Observatory CVO status and knew it was green🟢. It's safe today too. volcanoes.usgs.gov/hans-public #volcano🌋 #geology #history #PNW

  24. Wikipedia also has extensive information on the May 18, 1980 eruption of Mt St Helens, 46 years ago today. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1980_eru #volcano🌋 #geology #history #PNW

  25. 46 years ago, May 18, 1980: the infamous explosive eruption of Mount St Helens in southern Washington State. The north side of the mountain collapsed and uncorked the pressurized magma inside the mountain. 57 fatalities. The immediate area including Spirit Lake was buried. A lahar (mudflow) washed away structures along the North Fork of the Toutle River. Ashfall blanketed the area to the north and east.

  26. 18 May 1980, Mount St Helens erupted. #volcano

  27. "Low Sun, Mount Baker" for #MountainMonday

    View of Mount Baker (it's a volcano!) from Huntoon Point on a hazy and smoky but clear-skied afternoon. Photographed with @michaelrussell & @acrowe who we met during a crazy road trip to the PNW in 2022.

    Complicated photo manually blended from 5 frames. Was using my finger to block the sun so that I could recover all areas without having lens flares all over.

  28. On this day 46 years ago Mt. St. Helens in Washington State erupted blowing off half the mountain. The explosion shook the windows in my home in Canada over 500km away.

    A small idea of the destruction can be seen in this photo taken three months later. This was about as far up the mountain as the public could get.
