Michael Flores+FollowUnderwater Volcano About to Blow?An underwater volcano called Axial Seamount, 300 miles off Oregon’s coast, is expected to erupt in 2025! Scientists are super hyped because it’s one of the most closely monitored spots under the ocean, packed with sensors and cameras. But don’t freak out—experts say coastal communities probably won’t even notice. No tsunami or earthquake threat here, just a rare chance for researchers to watch Earth do its thing. Meanwhile, deep-sea mining companies are eyeing the area for metals, which could mess with fragile ecosystems. Wild, right? #Science #UnderwaterVolcano #AxialSeamount21033Share
Patrick Simmons+FollowUnderwater Volcano Might Blow—Like, Tomorrow?Scientists are on edge because the Axial Seamount, a massive underwater volcano off Oregon, could erupt any day now—maybe even tomorrow! The seafloor’s bulging, earthquakes are ramping up, and magma’s on the move. Last time it blew, there were thousands of quakes and crazy lava flows, but don’t worry—it's so deep and far out, we won’t feel a thing on land. Still, the idea of a surprise eruption is wild! #VolcanoWatch #AxialSeamount #ScienceNews #Earthquake #PacificNorthwest #Science346Share
Patrick Simmons+FollowUnderwater Volcano Might Blow—Like, Tomorrow?Apparently, the Axial Seamount—an underwater volcano off Oregon—could erupt as soon as tomorrow, and scientists are on edge. Magma is pushing up, earthquakes are spiking, and the seafloor is bulging (not a good sign). Last time it erupted, there were thousands of quakes and massive lava flows, but experts say coastal towns are safe. Still, if this thing goes off, we’re talking 10,000 quakes in a day! Wild how something so intense can happen and we might not even notice above water. #VolcanoWatch #ScienceNews #AxialSeamount #Earthquake #NatureIsWild #Science21843Share
