Hawaii Volcanoes Timelapse
An Icelandic volcano that has been dormant for nearly 200 years has just erupted near the Eyjafjallajoekull glacier sending lava flows down into the valley. These falls are aproximatly had just been created by tha lava flow and was sending thousands of tonnes of lave down into the Thorsmörk valley.
A reservoir of water three times the volume of all the oceans has been discovered deep beneath the Earth’s surface. The finding could help explain where Earth’s seas came from.
The water is hidden inside a blue rock that lies 700 kilometres underground in the mantle, the layer of hot rock between Earth’s surface and its core.
Some geologists think water arrived in comets as they struck planets, but the new discovery supports an alternative idea that the ocean oozed out of Earth’s interior layer.
