Underwater volcanos

 

It might seem that volcanoes can only exist and erupt on the surface. But the truth is that there are many underwater volcanoes that are remain dormant, although an explosion can appear at any moment. One of the most known undersea volcano is Marsili which is located about 175 kilometers south of Naples. It hasn’t exploded yet, but if it does it may cause tsunami which can hit the coasts of Campania, Calabria and Sicily.

There are not so many underwater volcanoes, but some time ago geologists discovered a new one which is located between Madagascar and Mozambique in the Indian Ocean. It erupted not so long time ago. The scientists recorded a weird seismic event – they called it  a seismic hum that circled the world, but no one could figure out what sparked it. The underwater volcano is huge, rising nearly a half mile from the ocean floor. It's the length of a 3.1-mile race and lies about 31 miles off Mayotte's eastern coast. And it came into being in just six months.

    Wasn't the infamous tsunami of 2004 caused by an underwater volcano in the Indian Ocean? Or was it just an earthquake?

Underwater pyramid in the Azores

Obraz
  At the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean, a large pyramid-shape was found. The top of the pyramid is 40 meters deep and 60 meters high and covers an area of ​​8,000 m2. The underwater pyramid was discovered by a local angler in September this year during one of his trips. This angler claims that the pyramid must have been built with human hands and it may be the mythical Atlantis. However, not everyone is convinced that the find from the Azores is a pyramid. Skeptics that there is a chance that this is just an underwater volcanic hill, not a residual Atlantean civilization. (it’s because Azores are archipelago of nine volcanic islands and that’s why people are not convinced about the theory of underwater city)    https://curiosmos.com/is-there-a-20000-year-old-underwater-pyramid-in-the-atlantic-ocean/

Observation 6

 I’ve read an article about domestic violence. The text talked about the maltreatment of man against women and the passivity of the police. It sounds pretty horryfing. Maybe the number of women who were murdered because of their partners is not high, but why is it not dropping? Why the police is doing literally nothing event they have evidence of violence? Also a creepy fact is that the punishments for doing such a thing are really mild and most of the perpetrators do not even receive them. The article mentions a woman who was killed by her husband while sleeping. Before that situation the neighbors dialled for help but the police did nothing and it was the main reason why that woman died. Because of ignorance and passivity. What else we can do when even someone like police officers do not care about our safety? Maybe not to have any relationships or carry a knife whenever we are surrounded by other people? It sounds ridiculous but I have no better idea how to be safe on our own

Soap and viruses- Is social distancing that we all have to practise now is difficult or easy for you?

For me social distancing is a little bit difficult, because I don't have any kind of physical contact with somebody in my age. Of course staying at home for over a dozen days was really great, but when the prohibitions appeared that we can't go out and meet friends, it became harder. Videochats and online lessons it's not the same as face to face meeting. Although we recently had an Easter, and we couldn't go to our families, because of this virus. That's why for me and for most people staying at home is very hard.
