Cool pictures ι: Do not disturb my circles

Tame compared to other kinds of volcanoes. Hawaiian volcanoes are of the shield type. While huge there is not risk of big explosions. Lava is very fluid however and can reach far away quickly. Stratovolcanoes as Pinatubo, Mount St Helens, Teide or Vesuvius are the dangerous ones. They are the megaton sized explosions, piroclastic clouds and that sort of things type. Better to be 100km away at eruption.

The next eruption of the Thera volcano will likely erase half of the central aegean. And obviously nothing on Thera (Santorini) will remain.

I think a popular theory about Cormac McCarthy's The Road, and of the film adaptation, is that a Yellowstone eruption was the cause of the disaster.

We should have thousands of years of warning at minimum as the bulge starts to get bigger.

I generally only get 5 seconds of warning when that happens.

Only decades of warning.

Jeffrey Dahmer likely had one.

Argento was a genius of color. Suspiria is probably my favorite. Just absolutely gorgeous, every frame

That is presumably the 3D view from GoogleMaps/Earth...?

 

[Thorgalaeg]

I hope so. Otherwise Italy is melting.

Actually the buildings just use low-poly skins, so that the tourists can move around them with more frames/second.

Probably not entirely fitting for this thread, but I do think it looks cool in a creepy kind of way, so...



...real person or bad computer Animation? The answer might surprise you!

 

[Thorgalaeg]

It is a real person disguised as a bad computer animation.
