#Volcano eruption continues ‘Sharkcano’ fame

“Volcano eruption continues ‘Sharkcano’ fame” Satellite imagery shows Kavachi, one of the most active submarine volcanoes in the Pacific Ocean and most known for its shark inhabitants, is showing increased plumes. Better-known aerial volcanoes are easier to study because their higher elevations typically make them more accessible. But submarine volcanoes like Kavachi, located in the…

#‘Cryovolcanos’ erupting slushy ice water recently active on Pluto

“‘Cryovolcanos’ erupting slushy ice water recently active on Pluto” Giant ice volcanos were active ‘relatively recently’ on Pluto, altering its surface, scientists say. Images taken of Pluto reveal a region of strange terrain previously unobserved in our solar system, according to a new study published in the journal Nature Communications. Snapped by Nasa’s New Horizons spacecraft in…
