Volcanos, the ultimate natural force of destruction. They’re unforgiving, uncompromising and unstoppable. About 1,500 volcanoes around the world are considered to be active, with more than 10% of them in the United States. Is there any way we could stop them before the destruction begins? Could we literally fight fire with fire? What if we nuked an active volcano?
