Hello everyone. This is Kevin from TWO & Solutions.
UK ichthyosaur fossil / Tonga Volcanic eruption / Darvaza Gas Crater.
A paleontologist in the U.K. found a 10 m long 33 feet ichthyosaur fossil at Rutland Water Nature Reserve.
This fossil is five or six times as large as dolphins and humans.
It is the first time to discover the largest, the most complete ichthyosaur fossil in the UK,
where it has been researched for over 200 years.
Research team is currently preparing to publish academic papers soon.
NASA researchers estimate the power of a powerful volcanic eruption in the island nation Tonga -
10 megatons of TNT equivalent.
It’s approximately 50 megatons of TNT for Tsar Bomba by the former Soviet Union.
It was the loudest event to happen on Earth since the Indonesian volcano Krakatau in 1883,
by a geophysicist with USGS.
The islands in Tonga link a subduction zone, in which a part of the Earth’s crust submerges under another
by NASA research scientist.
He assumes that this volcanic explosion may be connected with a sudden change
in the subterranean plumbing, resulting in a huge amount of seawater engulfed or overflew
into large amounts of liquid rock under the sea.
Ongoing more analysis of the area with spaceborne imagery and probably drones,
once the volcano becomes safer later.
Turkmenistan in Central Asia bordered by the Caspian Sea and is located between Uzbekistan, Afghanistan
and Iran now explores how to extinguish a 50 year-old fire in a massive natural gas crater
having 70 meters (229 feet) wide and 20 meters deep.
This artificial, human-made gas crater is located in the middle of Karakum desert and has been burning
since 1971 by the former Soviet Union which decided to burn off the gas by setting it up on fire.
The president of Turkmenistan has been concerned about the environment
and the issue of health of people and ordered a SOLUTION to put out the fire.
