US Panic: 7 hours ago, before the unset, as the earth rose, thundering across the land

Past volcanic eruptions that occurred in Yellowstone National Park have been a global disaster. Today, scientists are trying to predict how this time bomb will explode-or fail. A giant volcano lies beneath the western United States. For the past 70,000 years, the region has been largely peaceful. If this changes, it could have bad consequences. This super volcano is located under Yellowstone National Park, which is a giant park that stretches through Wyoming, Idaho, and Montana. The volcano itself is in northwest Wyoming. About 6-10 kilometers (4-6 miles) underground there is a large chamber filled with magma, or molten rock.
