This is a Map of Iceland, the small island in the middle of the atlantic ocean is home to some of the world’s most active volcanoes.One of those active volcanoes is the very active Katla Supervolcano. It is a large and very active volcano in the southern part of Iceland, possibly the largest and most dangerous volcano in Iceland. It is very active, meaning over 20 eruptions in the last 1000 years. But the last violent eruption now dates back a suspiciously long 104 years. If it were to erupt again today, as it did in the year 934, when a massive VEI-6 volcanic eruption occurred on the small rocky island in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, the effects on the climate and our globalized world overall would be much greater.Let’s look at a smaller scale example, the year 2010,On April 14th 2010, a volcano in Iceland erupted unexpectedly without warning. It caused massive flight delays and stranded travelers throughout Europe as tons of volcanic ash and dust spewed into the atmosphere. By the time airports reopened five days later, 60% of European flights had been canceled, and more than 100,000 travelers had been affected.While that was obviously very bad. The volcanic eruption could have been much worse. In the past, eruptions with devastating effects have occurred. For example,1816, known as “The Year Without a Summer.” The volcanoes spewed out so much ash and smoke that it blocked out the sun and caused a yearlong winter. If Europe had another Year Without a Summer, it could mean that all of Europe's airports would shut down.If this happens, how well can the global air traffic network cope?Join us in this video, we show you the terrifying New Discovery In Iceland That Changes Everything.To find out, The Assistant Professor Trivik Verma from the Energy Science Center ETH Zurich mapped a global airline traffic network of 18,000 different routes between 3,237 airports, tracing countless connections.As it turns out, the network is somewhat robust. The average number of connections between any two airports on Earth is four, with the longest distance between any two locations being 12 connections.
