Scientists To Drill Volcano In Search Of Unlimited Super-Hot Energy

An international team of scientists is preparing to drill into an active volcano in Iceland in search of a better understanding of the properties of the molten rock, magma, deep underneath. Apart from gaining better insights into the processes taking place under the surface of the Earth, the researchers plan, via a testbed under the Krafla volcano, to look into the potential of super-hot geothermal energy. The extremely hot temperatures in magma could be a source of limitless 24/7 clean energy, according to the Krafla Magma Testbed (KMT) initiative.…
