TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - Researchers estimate that the underwater volcano off the coast of Oregon, Axial Seamount, is likely to erupt in mid to late 2026. Previously, scientists predicted the eruption could occur in 2025. However, the latest data shows that the ground inflation process is occurring more slowly than initially thought.

On November 13th 1985, just after 9pm, the Nevado del Ruiz volcano in the northern Andes, also known as Cumanday, Tabuchía, or Taba in the indigenous language, produced a small eruption. On the Volcanic Explosivity Index, the event was classified as a 3, on a logarithmic scale that ranges from 0 to 8.

Kilauea's most recent eruption drew in flocks of visitors. Here's what travelers should know about the natural spectacle.
