Yellowstone Park is the United States and the world’s first national park, located in the western United States Wyoming, Idaho, Montana at the junction of three states, located between the Rocky Mountains in the north the lava plateau, with an average altitude of over 2438 meters. Covers an area of 8956 square km. Volcanic eruption in Yellowstone National Park in the formation of the British experts predict that a super volcano under Yellowstone park about once every 60 years eruption, and has been since the last eruption 64 million years, has now entered the eruption cycle. Yellowstone Park is the core area of the “Big Yellowstone Ecosystem,”, and the “Big Yellowstone Ecosystem” is the best preserved on earth and the largest temperate ecosystem. As 6000 million years, Yellowstone region several times in the geological era earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, large volcanic eruptions have occurred three times, and the possible outbreak of the last two million years ago, is more likely that 60 million years ago. According to rumors, the last volcanic eruption, volcanic eruption out of the mouth the material would be approximately 9,000 square kilometers of the regional total coverage, thickness of more than 1500 m, forming large areas of basalt, andesite rhyolite and others, forming more than 2000 meters above sea level is the lava plateau . “Super volcano” eruption may reach 8 or above, the scale of emission of the volcano up to 3 billion cubic meters. On Earth the last time a “super volcano” erupted was around the 74 000 years ago, near the island of Sumatra in Indonesia, the Toba region, now there is still left a huge hole 104 km long. It is estimated that a “super volcano” eruption, ejected approximately 2334 cubic kilometers of volcanic ash. The resulting sulfuric acid smog covered the entire earth up to several years. Scientists estimate that this “super volcano” broke out, the Earth may be only a few thousand survivors. In other words, Yellowstone is indeed hidden super power to destroy the Earth, its eruptions of magma enough to bury half the United States.
