do you know anything about the volcano in idaho: craters of the moon?

Craters of the Moon is a late-stage volcanic event related to the hot-spot track of Yellowstone.  It is in the weak, thin crust underneith the snake river plane.

Well, the page linked below lists many of them, but you need to decide what you will count as volcanoes. You take for example Kilauea. Kilauea has erupted from several different craters in the last hundred years, including Halemaumau, Kilauea Iki, and most recently, Puu Oo. Those are a few miles apart. Is each crater a separate volcano?\n\nThe link takes you to a list that is mostly comprised of large shield volcanoes. The island of Hawaii is made of several of those, Maui's got two, Molokai's got three, and the island of Lanai is made of just one. Many of those shield volcanoes have smaller volcanoes on them. \n\nMany of the shield volcanoes like Mauna Kea or Haleakala  have cinder cones on them. I pass two or three on the way to work every day. Are you counting cinder cones? There may not have been a definitive census ever done of those on Hawaiian volcanoes. Diamond Head or Leahi on Oahu is a tuff ring. It was once probably a cinder cone, but do you count tuff rings? Is Diamond Head one of the 40 Honolulu vents mentioned on the page below under Oahu? I don't even know.\n\nDo you count underwater volcanoes? How about the Emperor Seamounts, which were probably formed by the Hawaiian Hot Spot, but which are underwater and stretch all the way north to Alaska?\n\nYour question seems like a simple one that should have a straightforward answer, but it's really not.

I know it's a hoax because they filmed it in my backyard.  My parents had a place that had craters and a lot of white cheese and NASA asked us if they could use it for the astronaut's training...we agreed and then we found out that the astronauts were falling in the craters and putting flags in them and eating the cheese and saying they were on the moon.  We had to move away due to the embarrasment to our family and we were in hiding for many years.  It's only now I can tell you this because it's been over 30 yrs but if you don't hear from me anymore, it will be because NASA came back.  To verify my story, just ask Al Gore..he made global warming with a big window fan and now he is trying to blow it everywhere.

1.Sunspots and Solar Flares are two "surface features".\nsunspots are created due to intense magnetic emissions, which lower temperature and prohibit convection, the transfer of heat through fluids (liquids and gases)\nSolar Flares are violent explosions within the atmosphere of the sun, which eject superheated plasma at over 1 million miles an hour. the flares also emit all forms of electromagnetic radiation, from short wave gamma radiation to long wave radio.\n\n2. Up until the mid-19th century, the light parts (terrae) and dark parts (mare) were thought to be land masses and oceans respectively.\nA theory propagated in Nazi Germany was that the moon, and other celestial bodies, were made of ice.\nUp until the 1950's, it was not completely accepted that the features of the moon were impact craters. Now we know that they truly are craters left over from meteor impacts, the youngest of which are hundred of thousands to millions of years old.\n\n3. What Shoemaker meant was, that since the Moon has no atmosphere, there is no chance of erosion or weathering affecting the features.\nCraters and debris pile up, never changing, just being overlapped by newer events.\n\n4. "Sunshine" Is called an Exothermic thermonuclear reaction (nuclear fusion). The exothermic fusion events happen in the core, where hydrogen is converted into helium, helium into carbon, and carbon into iron.\nThe heat energy created by fusion in the core then travels trough the rest of the layers of the sun before escaping as light and other forms of energy.\n\n5. There is a large amount of Iridium found in the fossil layer of around 65 million years ago, and Iridium (very rare on Earth) is abundant in asteroids.\nChicxulub Crater is an ancient impact crater buried underneath the Yucatan Peninsula. Geologic studies have found that the age and chemical composition of the crater corresponds with the hypothesized asteroid that hit Earth 65 million years ago.\n\n6. The moon is tidally locked in orbit around the Earth, so that as it rotates, we rotate, so that the same face is always pointing toward us. The moon rotates and orbits completely around the Earth every four weeks, so that is why we never see the far side. \n\n7. Mercury and Pluto would have the most in common with the Moon, due to their lack of atmosphere. Mars is semi-similar to the Moon, due to the lack of water available to erode the topography.\nEarth and Venus are the least like the Moon, due to their rather violent atmospheres.\n\n8. Contrary to popular belief, the Earth is NOT closer to the sun, any time of the year. Its orbit is described as elliptical, but only because it is not a perfect circle.\nSince the Earth is tilted, currently in Washington it is autumn, but it is spring in Australia.\nThe Northern Hemisphere is angled so the suns rays are less direct in hitting the face of the planet, and the Southern Hemisphere is angled so the rays are more direct.

There are and were other planets/moons that have volcanic activity.\n\nMars\nMars has the remnants of the largest volcano mountain.  The volcano would be the size of Arizona.  It is not active at the moment.  See the first link below for more information.\n\nIo - Moon\nThe recent Galileo trip to Jupiter revealed that its moon Io is very geologically active.  In its flyby back in 2000 it detected 10 new volcanoes.  81 volcanoes have been observed on Io.  See the second link for the CNN story.\n\nNevertheless, there are some other geologically active objects in our solar system.  There are certainly other objects that are active in the universe.

Soddy is an eroded lunar impact crater that lies to the south-southeast of the prominent King crater. Material from the ray system surrounding King covers the sides and interior of Soddy crater. Less than a crater diameter to the west of Soddy is the smaller Heron crater.\n\nThis crater has been heavily worn and eroded, so that only a remnant of a crater depression survives. There are small craterlets along the rim edge to the southwest and southeast. The interior is uneven and almost indistinguishable from the surrounding terrain.\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soddy_%28crater%29

I got an idea\n\nHow about one magma chamber passing another on its way to the surface. The one magma chamber says to the other "Are you on your way to the top?". The other magma chamber replies "Yeah, I don't mean to intrude".\n\nI got another one. One continent is approaching another continent on a tectonic plate. The one continent says "you're very subductive" and the other continent says, "I don't know, I think we should just have a plutonic relationship"\n\nIt's funny?\n\nOne more. Two magma chambers are sittin' havin' a chat. One magma chamber says to the other "did you see that young intrusive that came up the other day, boy was she hot!". The other magma chamber says "Don't get your hopes up, she's a dyke."\n\nHave I gone too far? No?\n\nOkay I have one last one. I promise\n\nTwo sulphide crystals are floatin' around in a magma chamber. One of them says to the other "look at the cleavage on that sweet little feldpar over there." The other suphide crystal says "pff, silicon."\n\nThank you everyone and g'night.
