My question is why is NASA working on a way to keep the volcano from erupting? Don't we have the USGS for that?
Reminds me a little blurb in the news awhile back about a NASA "research ship" measuring ocean temps, when we have NOAA for that. I guess anything to keep that .gov funding coming.

Quote HistoryQuoted:
The odds of a total planetary "volcanic winter" aren't real likely... Probably serious global cooling and lots of issues, but it's not the end of the species. I think "odds" favor the end of photosynthesis for a decade or two. That would unfortunately mean the extinction of most plant life on the planet. Which would mean the extinction of most animal life on the planet. If an asteroid smacked into the earth and kicked up enough dust to end most life on the planet, more than once... |

If scientists say this thing is going to blow, they get funding.
If scientists say it isn’t going to blow anytime soon, they lose their funding. |

If I recall correctly, The scientific consensus in the 70's was that the caldera eruption was about 25,000 years late. A drop in the bucket in geologic time. The only thing NASA scientists can do to stop the eruption is the same process developed in the 70's - stick your head between your legs and kiss your ass goodbye.

You might want to google what a volcanic winter is. Granted, Yellowstone could just burp, and only Jackson Hole gets taken out.... but if it completely lets loose?? Only the people inside the circle die in the first hour or two. The rest of the planet gets to slowly die over time. This could all happen tomorrow... or in 87,000 years from now. They have NO idea, even if they say they do. According to this Yellowstone erupted 670,000 years ago. We sure did recover fast. |

My plan, if such a thing were to occur, would be to put everything I could inside my garage and shed, seal up the doors and windows, and try not to open it for about a month. For cars and other stuff I can't get into the garage, wrap in plastic. I can loot the local Dollar General on foot, but in 2 months I'll be the only person with transportation that doesn't eat hay and poop.

If instead of getting new gaskets for your bunker door you went and looked at the paper you would learn that this studies result is based on a computer model.
Catastrophic anthropogenic global warming hysteria is also model based. Computer models are difficult to validate. Back to regular GD Yellowstone  speculation.

They should install one of these:
and let the lava just circulate rather than erupting. |

Quote HistoryQuoted:
On a quasi serious note, it won't be crop failure that end's civilization if the volcano goes, it will be the destruction of almost all rotating equipment and engines. That fan will stop working in a couple of hours. Leaf blower? 15 minutes. The volcanic dust is mostly microscopic glass (WAY too much for unicorn use), and loves to get into bearings. And once it blows out the intake air filters on combustion engines, it gets into the combustion chamber, melts, and deposits itself on the cooler part - like cylinder walls, valves, and turbine blades. My plan, if such a thing were to occur, would be to put everything I could inside my garage and shed, seal up the doors and windows, and try not to open it for about a month. For cars and other stuff I can't get into the garage, wrap in plastic.
