Zoo & AquariumSTEM / ScienceMuseumOutdoor

Volcanoes have helped create our world. The continents, the air we breathe and even life itself have their origins in fire. These processes have created extraordinary ecosystems and wildlife habitats.

The story of volcanoes is the story of the planet’s creation and the story of us. Volcanoes: The Fires of Creation, lets you witness the 2018 Kilauea eruption in Hawaii; see the archaeological remains of Pompeii, devastated almost 2,000 years ago by Mount Vesuvius; visit Mount Fuji in Japan, made up of three volcanoes—Fuji on top and two others hidden beneath; and marvel at the black molten lava of Ol Doinyo Lengai in Tanzania.
