kimberly31+FollowAncient Monasteries Shaken in GreeceDid you hear about the earthquakes rocking Mount Athos? This secluded Greek peninsula, home to centuries-old Orthodox monasteries, just took a major hit. The Monastery of Xenophon, built in the 10th century, now has severe cracks in its dome and damaged frescoes. Restoration crews are rushing in, but it’s wild to think these sacred sites have survived so much—until now. Fingers crossed the repairs can save these pieces of history! #MountAthos #Earthquake #History #Religion90Share
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
