(Side note: Sound quality is a little off on this and our previous episode. Our first attempt at remote recording. It's not horrible! But should be better for future episodes)
When one thinks of natural disasters in Alaska, earthquakes and tsunamis may come to mind first, but Alaska is also a hot spot for another type of destruction...volcanoes! Alaska sits on the ring of fire and since 1900 has averaged 1-2 volcanic eruptions every year. On today's episode, we delve into some of the more notable eruptions that have occurred in the Last Frontier state and some incredible stories surrounding those events. What Alaskan eruption puts Vesuvius to shame? What happens when a plane flies through volcanic ash? And what famous line from Star Trek was stolen from volcanologists?! It's the episode you'll want to get hot off the presses.
