In Long Valley Caldera, California, a group of scientists from Caltech have made a startling discovery – a huge, powerful supervolcano that is eerily similar to the one responsible for the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD. Scientists have determined that the volcano is capable of producing an apocalyptic eruption, and their research serves as an important reminder to humanity of the danger of powerful natural disasters.
