For billions of years, volcanoes have forged our world into the shape we know today, with special ecosystems and unique animals. The story of the volcanoes is the story of the earth and of ourselves.
Join National Geographic photographer Carsten Peter on an adventure as he snaps photos on the edge of active volcanoes in Indonesia, descends into dangerous lava lakes in Vanuatu and visits geysers in Ethiopia. We also visit the archaeological city of Pompeii, which was completely buried during a prolonged volcanic eruption in 79 AD. We complete the adventure with a look at the bottom of the ocean at the hydrothermal vents and experience the consequences of the Kilauea eruption in Hawaii in 2018.
There are more than 500 active volcanoes worldwide, and many more inactive, all of which help create ecosystems and shape the Earth. Experience it from the edge of your seat!
