Today I Learned (til) some facts about volcanoes since the new tags have given me extra incentive to further my knowledge on cool topics like natural disasters and destructive forces that we have no control over.

If you studied the two gifs above, you would notice that lightning is occurring along side the erupting lava from the core of a volcanic opening. As if volcanoes weren't crazy enough, lightning also is full of searing hot energy ready to destroy whatever is in its path and light ablaze matter as it ricochets its electrical current outward like spiderwebs.

The reasoning for lightning occurring in ash plume clouds within a volcano is still being researched and investigated but some scientists speculate that it could be the matter being shot out of the volcano and the transformative occurrence of positive and negative charges of electromagnetic energy moving throughout the atmosphere inside these blazing hot ash plume clouds.

The toxic gases and hot ash can suffocate you and burn you to death if inhaled and come into close contact with it in high volumes and density.

As dangerous as volcanoes are, they do create beautiful and surreal canvasses of art such as this gif above with a orange and reddening of the sky of all ash clouds being expelled from an active volcano.
As well as here below.


Volcanoes only erupt because of the funneling pressured magma that rushes up out of the magma chambers as liquid rock through cracked and weakened layers of rock beneath the Earth's crust which stems from the Earth's core inferno.

When the magma surfaces, it is then referred to as Lava.

Lava makes me think of the super sweet dessert Baklava but that's neither here nor there, but my stomach says otherwise

There's too much to write about concerning the wonder and awes of volcanoes and their deadly beauty. So I'll cut this lesson here and keep it relatively short.
By the way, If you don't know what voraciousness or veracity means from the title of this post, here are two definitions compliments of my iPhone's software dictionary which I had screen shot for you all.


It is always nice to expand your vocabulary whenever possible and I hope I can introduce you more new words as we journey forward in this literary exploration together.
Thanks for reading my post in its entirety, hope you learned something new.
