The Door to Hell

Fire, Darvaza Crater. It is a natural gas field in
Derweze, Turkmenistan. It has largest gas reserve
in the world.
• The site was identified by Soviet engineers in
1971. It was originally thought to be a substantial
oil field site. The engineers set up a drilling rig
and camp nearby, and started drilling operations
to assess the quantity of oil available at the site.
When they instead found gas, the ground
beneath the drilling rig and camp collapsed into
a wide crater and disappeared.
• Expecting dangerous releases of poisonous
gases from the cavern into nearby towns, the
engineers thought it best to burn the gas off. It
was estimated that the gas would burn out
within a few weeks, but it has instead continued
to burn for more than four decades since it was
set on fire.
Champagne Pool

geothermal feature within the
Waiotapu geothermal area in the
North Island of New Zealand. Its
name is derived from the abundant
efflux of carbon dioxide (CO2),
similar to a glass of bubbling
champagne. The vibrant colours
come from a rich deposition of
minerals and silicate. The silicate
structures around the edge of the
pool are teeming with microbial life.

visibility and severity of the
geomagnetic storms.
