A massive volcanic eruption was recorded by two satellites.

In the last 24 hours we've seen a huge explosive volcanic eruption from the Tongan island of Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha'apai - the blast is so large it's easily visible from multiple satellites in geostationary orbit, tens of thousands of miles up. The blast sent a soundwave around the world.

Nature is awesome...mankind will eventually need to tap into sources of geothermal energy, like volcanoes...

A friend's log mansion is climate controlled through the walls ceilings & floors, porches, driveways & sidewalks with a geothermal system.

Nice h.u.t.

To the op "massive" is a relative term when describing eruptions.

It could also as easily be referred to as a tiny burp

Not even a belch
