No other monitoring data show changes in the Yellowstone region. Today’s explosion does not reflect a change in the volcanic system, which remains at normal background levels of activity," according to Yellowstone National Park.

Considering it’s a freaking super-volcano….

…. That’s a bit of a relief.

(Pun intended.)

By video, do you mean 8 photographs of the aftermath? There is no video on the nbcmontanna article.

That would be so cool to see in person.

[–] piecat@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

No, it would be scalding hot. But also probably neat.

The people in the video appeared unscathed.

Wow that explosion is pretty intense. My brothers and I joked about that when we were there back in the 90s.

I hope everyone was ok though.

I think it’s time for caffeine, it took about three seconds too long to remember that hydrothermal and thermonuclear are two very different things.

i wish you have a "biscuit" with that hydrothermal coffee 😋
