I heard about it too. It seems like a pretty frightening volcano to keep an eye on. I know the original Krakatoa was so violent that the smoke it spewed affected the whole world before it finally sank into the sea, leading to the birth of Anak Krakatoa after it collapsed. I hope it doesn’t repeat the devastation its “mother” caused. Living in the Ring of Fire means eruptions happen from time to time, and we currently have about three very active volcanoes erupting as well.

@nawala123 Stay safe during these times when volcanoes are erupting, as their activity is unpredictable. They might show warning signs, but can suddenly erupt and catch you by surprise.

Looking back at past events, the eruption of Krakatoa could have wiped out half of Indonesia's territory.

@nawala123 That’s right; areas close to the water are highly vulnerable to Mount Krakatoa.

@nawala123 Yes, Mount Etna erupted in 1883. It was very active from December 878, to March 1883. This eruption is part of a long history of volcanic activity at Etna.

142 year ago was the Krakatoa eruption. The eruption that time was really horrible and create Anak Krakatoa... and now it is eruption. Will this the sign of greater disaster?

If I'm not mistaken, there isn't just one Anak Krakatau, but several.
