That’s why monitoring them is very important. Now, a group of researchers has created specially-adapted drones that can fly into volcanoes and gather data to warn of any upcoming eruption.

Monitoring them to forewarn the public is an important undertaking, but measuring volcanic gas emissions is not an easy feat. Recently, to aid this effort, researchers have designed specialized drones to watch and monitor an active volcano in Papua New Guinea.Mon, 02 Nov 2020 16:37:00 +0100interestingengineering-9412df7c76b1a5feae1e297659408a6c20201102163700
