The Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha'apai — an underwater volcano located 40 miles (65km) north of Nuku'alofa, the capital of the Kingdom of Tonga — has erupted a couple of times over the past few decades. However, its January 15, 2022, explosion was like none other seen on Earth in over 30 years. The spectacular 13-mile-wide eruption, with a sonic boom heard 6,000 miles away in Alaska, spewed large plumes of ash and gases as high as 19 miles. The massive waves that followed triggered tsunami warnings in Peru, New Zealand, Japan, and the US West Coast.

- rockstarhare263년 이상Here is a question for you guys! What would you do if that had happened here? I would get as high as I could to try to stay safe from it.
- rockstarhare263년 이상Just think about the people that had to go through that. It must have been VERY scary for them. You guys should be very thankful that it did not happen here, because it could have killed us. We should be very thankful.
