Yellowstone geyser erupts for fifth time in months, prompting fears of an eruption<\/a><\/h3>\n

Does the USGS, NASA, and other government agencies know more than they are leading people to believe when it comes to the Yellowstone supervolcano?<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/header>\n<\/div>\n

(INTELLIHUB<\/a>) \u2014 The largest active geyser in the world has erupted for the fifth time this year, prompting the general public to wonder if an eruption of the supervolcano is imminent.<\/p>\n

Scientists from the United States Geological Survey (USGS) have been trying to quell peoples fears that the magma chamber may explode by producing a series of information and awareness videos explaining how everything should be okay for the time being.<\/p>\n

@USGSVolcanos<\/a> issued the following tweet on Sunday: \u201c#Steamboat #Geyser in @YellowstoneNPS erupts for [the] 5th time in 2018, just before 4 AM on May 13. Steamboat also had frequent eruptions in the 1960s and early 1980s. No implications for volcanic activity, but good implications for viewing some spectacular geysering this summer!\u201d (typos corrected)<\/p>\n

Plus, University of Utah Seismograph Station sensor readings indicate an uptick in activity which may be acting as a red flag indicator to people in-the-know.<\/p>\n

But at the same time, NASA has been working on a plan to drill into the molten magma chamber<\/a> and pump water into it in an effort to stop such an eruption from occurring, one that could send the world into a nuclear winter<\/a> scenario.<\/p>\n

\n

\n
Withal, some scientists fear the current activity may go hand-in-hand with the recent activation of Hawaii\u2019s Kilauea volcano<\/a> and volcanoes located in the Pacific Northwest<\/a>.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
