Yes, another one just exploded. Seems like there's a smaller chance of a leak, luckily, but it's unclear.

"Earth From Above" is the result of the aerial photographer Yann Arthus-Bertrand's five-year airborne odyssey across six continents. It's a spectacular presentation of large scale photographs of astonishing natural landscapes. Every stunning aerial photograph tells a story about our changing planet. This is a just a small collection. You can see the more at his website.

The world famous image has been recast as a spectacular photomosaic using over 5,000 archived images of Earth and space.

But there was an eruption on the sun's surface that blasted plasma toward the Earth. Sounds scary, but it turned out to be kind-of cool. The plasma helped to give millions of people a once-in-a-lifetime chance to see the Northern Lights. People in So.

Crazy!

The Darvaza area is rich in natural gas. While drilling in 1971 geologists accidentally found an underground cavern filled with natural gas. The ground beneath the drilling rig collapsed, leaving a large hole with a diameter of about 50-100 meters. To avoid poisonous gas discharge, it was decided to burn the gas. Geologists had hoped the fire would go out in a few days but it has been burning ever since. Locals have named the cavern The Door to Hell.
