People are scared of a number of different things, and one of those things is nature itself. The possibility of an apocalyptic event taking place on a scale that has never been witnessed before makes the eruption of Yellowstone’s supervolcano one of the most dreaded events in the modern era. Despite the fact that many people might not be aware of the dangers it poses, it appears to present one of the greatest realistic chances of wiping out the majority of life on earth and possibly leading to the extinction of the human race.
The Yellowstone Seismic Network is managed by the University of Utah Seismograph Stations. This network monitors the Yellowstone region for earthquake activity and provides real-time updates to the general public regarding any earthquakes that occur in the region.
The public is exposed to a double hazard in Yellowstone, one of which is the possibility of a significant earthquake, while the other is the possibility of volcanic activity. Now, the Yellowstone National Park officials have come forward and stated that the region has been struck by more than one thousand earthquakes in less than one month. Does this indicate that a major eruption is about to take place? Join us as we investigate why Yellowstone officials recently closed the park and issued such a dire warning about the rising number of earthquakes in the area.
