Horrible Today: 2nd explosion Yellowstone Giant Geyser threatens lives of visitors in National Park


Is the Yellowstone supervolcano about to erupt? A worrying study has revealed just how close its vast magma reservoir is to the surface.
The mountain is one of the world’s largest active volcanoes – officially known as a ‘supervolcano’. Yellowstone in the northwestern United States could cause a prolonged nuclear winter and global famine.
Their new study suggests that Yellowstone’s magma chamber is just 2.3 miles (3.8km) or about 12,500ft below the Earth’s surface. Some experts and locals believe the volcano’s next eruption is a long time coming.
