Volcanoes are fractures in a planet’s crust that allow magma, ash, and volcanic gases to escape from a magma chamber beneath the surface.
Volcanic eruptions can pose numerous dangers, not only in the vicinity of the eruption. One significant threat is volcanic ash, which can adversely affect aircraft, particularly those with jet engines, as it can adhere to turbine blades and alter their shape, causing damage.
Major eruptions can release enormous amounts of ash, obscuring sunlight and leading to a significant drop in temperature. In the past, volcanic winters have resulted in widespread famine affecting the entire globe.
