Still Waters Posted March 2, 2017 #1 Share Posted March 2, 2017 March 1, 2017 - See amazing footage of the erupting Mount Etna, Europe's largest active volcano. With written records of eruptions dating back to 425 B.C, Etna has almost continuous eruptive activity. A major eruption in 1928 destroyed the town of Mascali, but residents had enough time and warning to evacuate. Each year it produces enough lava to fill a 108-story skyscraper. http://news.nationalgeographic.com/2017/03/mount-etna-volcano-eruption-sicily/ 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herr Falukorv Posted March 2, 2017 #2 Share Posted March 2, 2017 Mother nature is awesome. I love the part in the video when the rocks (lava) tumble down the slope, it sounds exactly like when I am poking around the glowing coal in my kettle barbecue 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merc14 Posted March 16, 2017 #3 Share Posted March 16, 2017 I remember flying around Etna back in the 80's while working out of NAS Sigonella. It is always boiling away inside the vent. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totah Dine Posted March 18, 2017 #6 Share Posted March 18, 2017 Not sure what your point is but I was referring to the eruption that is injuring people and making headlines this week. I'm well aware it's an active volcano. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
