How the Earth Was Made- Yellowstone-Big Volcano Ready to Erupt

Yellowstone- The Hidden Volcano

The Yellowstone Caldera is a volcanic caldera and supervolcano in Yellowstone National Park in the Western United States, sometimes referred to as the Yellowstone Supervolcano. The caldera and most of the park are located in the northwest corner of Wyoming. The caldera measures 70 by 45 kilometers (43 by 28 miles), and post-caldera lavas spill out a significant distance beyond the caldera proper.

In this video, you will take a look at Yellowstone National Park and the caldera supervolcano beneath it that is pushing up the land and long overdue for what could be a titanic eruption.
