Mount Michael's Fiery Secret!
What's glowing on a snowy, faraway island? Let's zoom in with Zappi!
Hey tech explorers! Imagine looking down from space and seeing a super cool, glowing spot on a snowy island in the middle of a huge ocean. That's exactly what happened recently with Mount Michael, a volcano way down in the South Atlantic!
Mount Michael is like a giant, fiery mountain on an island called Saunders Island. It's super remote, which means it's really far away from almost everywhere. For a long time, scientists have guessed it had a lava lake inside โ like a big pool of super-hot, melted rock that's always bubbling!
