According to NASA, there is something more dangerous to our planet, lies under our feet, a phenomenon of "enormous volcanoes" or "supervolcanoes".

More than 20 volcanoes on Earth have the title of "volcano," with large explosions occurring on average once every 100,000 years. It is spread all over the world at the moment. NASA says only one eruption can pose a threat to mankind, bigger than the threat of asteroids. Fortunately, the US space agency has devised a plan to prevent the disaster.

Yellowstone National Park in the United States hides Caldera Yellowstone's massive 30-mile-long crater, which is filled with molten volcanic rocks and is responsible for the hot springs of this region. But for NASA scientists, it is also one of the greatest natural threats to human civilization. It is the center of a huge volcano. If it explodes, magma will melt hundreds of miles to burn everything within 60 miles.

But the destruction will not stop there, as the dust and gases caused by the eruption of the volcano can destroy crops and plunge the world into a "volcanic winter" that could last for decades and kill millions.

The NASA team says their plan, first published by the BBC, could prevent a volcanic eruption by "suctioning" heat from the volcanic peak and converting geothermal energy into electricity.

So if researchers can extract more heat, that volcano will never erupt.

According to the plan, it will drill up to 10 km down the volcano, pump water under high pressure, and the water will return to 350 ° C (662 ° F), which will slowly draw the heat day by day from the volcano.
