Who here has been to Yellowstone? One of my favorite places to go and I went in late 2010. For those who don't know the last eruption was over 600,000 years ago and guess what? It is way overdue to erupt again. Thing is this is not just a volcano it is a super volcano which can produce eruptions thousands time than most historic volcanos. Here is a quick video for those who don't know so take a minute and learn.

Hi Blake:
Sonice to see that yu into the sciences. Good lck on your studies. It is always so neat to be able to explain natural phenomena. I had read somewhere where a new cloud type had been identified and listed. So what is it and under what conditions is it found? Nice to have you as a model on Broke Straight Boys II. Thanks.
Watched the video on Yellowstone and the super volcano. WOW, that was very interesting. I live in Iowa, so it would be nice to have a hot sping in my back yard. I'm suggesting that it might provide an additional vent to avoid an eruption. See how helpful I can be.
Also, I've thinking about the clouds. I know part of their names. 1) fluffy clouds, 2)dense clouds, and 3) dark wall clouds that come just before a tornado.
As you can tell, I like to have fun and am a little sarcastic. Best wishes.

This is the best year for solar storms which causes Aurora's. We are projected to have the best aurora's since 1958. There is some worry because a huge solar flare from the sun could wipeout our communications, satellites, power, air travel etc. Just this morning there was a CME which is expected to deliver a blow to Earth's magnetic field on March 6th or 7th. There has been aurora's reported as far as Nebraska for the last CME and this recent one is a class 1 which is the highest. I'm going to try to see the aurora's here from Colorado since people in Nebraska could see the last one.
The first picture below is from the latest eruption on the sun. The proceeding pictures are from the last aurora which was not even a class 1 eruption. The pictures are a 4 second exposure. I want to see an aurora SO badly you have no idea.![]()
You could always arrange a "straight boys of Alaska" shoot, up there during aurore borealis time. Combine work and play, then Blake could go too.

Just make sure Blake keeps a safe distance away from the glaciers. So he doesn't melt them.![]()
In all seriousness though I really do hope you get the experience Blake.
I am a huge science Buff, seriously, I love doing nothing more than talking about earth science being, meteorology, geology, volcanology, pyro tech, lights tech, and astronomy! Im studying all of these in college, CHALLENGE ME! lol if you dare!![]()

So, how many people actually understand/know what geothermal activity is driving the heart of yellowstone national park in Wyoming?
From the top of my head I can't rememberthe name of it. But I do believe it's the clouds that form usually at high altitudes due to wind shear in both directions, usually pushed by a mountain top, create a bowl shaped cloud in the sky that also can be mistaken for a fairly llarge UFO!![]()
