Its Hawaii

It' not just Hawaii: There are 169 volcanoes in the United States that could explode.

Vulcanoes are full of gimmicks. There are 169 potentially volcanos in the United States Geological Survey - some of them directly from the text book conic peaks with crater, and others that barely look. Some few were involved in the new age, others broke out centuries or even millennia ago.

Its landmass is the result of the volcanoes: There are five of them, among them Mauna Loa, the world' s biggest volcanic activity. The Mauna Loa eruption has been 33 eruptions in the last 175 years, and Loihi, a U-boat volume about 20 leagues off the coast, broke out in 1996. Further northerly and westerly the isles are older and calmer from a geological point of view; Maui's only living vulcano, Haleakala, is said to have been erupting at least 400 years ago.

Although it has drawn many visitors to Hawaii Volcanoes National Park over the years, the prolonged onset of Kilauea has taken a considerable tribute. Hawaii Center for Volcanology finds that more than 100 homes have been demolished over a nine months span. And Hawaii often gets the news, but Alaska has the numbers:

Since 1760 at least 50 volcanos have been operating in the state and attract the interest of volcanologists and explorers. Alaskan Scientist at Wolcano Observatory have amber alarm for Mount Cleveland, where they have detected sea ice and heat activities and incidental volcanic ashtrays. As most volcanos of Alaska, Mount Cleveland is located in a remarkably secluded, uninhabited area.

However, the biggest issue that Vulcanoes raise on a regular basis is not on the floor, but rather several thousand metres in the outdoors. Scientists predict that 80,000 large airplanes are flying over or near Alaska' s volcanos every year, making them susceptible to it. The American West is littered with volcanos from Canada to Mexico.

Several are in the Sierra Nevada, such as the Long Valley Caldera, which is said to have broken out about 16,000 years ago. The first is Mount St. Helens, about 50 leagues from Portland, which exploded in 1980, erasing an igneous wreckage and exterminating woods and game.

US authorities say it is "the most likely of the US connected volumes to break out in the near-term. "Another is Mount Rainier, the highest of the cascades that rises near Seattle and Tacoma; it last broke out about 1,000 years ago. Let peak, less than 60 leagues from Redding, Calif.

The uncanny scenery of Lassen National Park was not created until 1917. Mt Hood and Mt Shasta have broken out in the last hundred years. Volcanos are not always single hills. The volcanoes spread over the western hemisphere are where researchers have found craters, streams of volcanos and evidence of relatively recent outbursts.

Formerly one of America's most beloved natural reserves, it is home to some of the most exciting activities that have taken place over the last two million years. Researchers observe the Gelstone for evidence of actions, but the other volcanos blown up by the mountain states are considered so low-risk that they are not surveillance.

The majority of volcanos are where they would be expected by the geologist - along the rugged ridges, fissures and hotspots in the earth's craters. In 1952, the New York Times found that it had given researchers "a one-of-a-kind chance to learn, as it was the first volume they had been able to explore every day since its birth".

Today Paricutín rests, but its story is still of key importance for the scientific knowledge of the evolution of volcanoes. Meaning that the 1997 film "Volcano", in which LA's recently released volcanos, could come to life? Although there are several earthquakes in the town, the earth's ridge does not move in a way that tends to generate vulcanic activity:
