The appearance of something new on Earth is not just fun to watch, practically – fabulously interesting. This fully applies even to the birth of a small life, say, the emergence of a sprout, leaf, unprepossessing blade of grass … And if the whole island is born?
For more than a month, a volcano erupted in the Tonga archipelago, and in As a result of this, a new island was born. Like a new baby. New Zealand volcanologist N. Fourier, almost like a midwife, was present for a month at this birth aboard the ship, drifting in the vicinity of an erupting volcano, and, you can even say, helped the volcano give birth. Unlike the birth of everything living on Earth, Nico admitted, the island appears more majestically, although it was this one who, surprisingly, rose from under the water very quiet, almost silent …
The new island now rises one hundred meters above sea level, its dimensions are approximately kilometer per kilometer, and while mostly it is loose slag. But, as they say, the trouble is great – the beginning. Niko Fournier is even pleased that the ferocious volcano, which is more than a month frightened everyone with its roar and eruptions of fire, which even violated island air traffic, born so wonderful way – a new island. What could be more beautiful than birth something new in the ocean?
