Far below the Pacific Ocean, about 300 miles off the Oregon coast, lies Axial Seamount, the most active underwater volcano in the Pacific Northwest. It’s slowly preparing for its next eruption. Scientists are carefully watching the volcano because it helps them understand how eruptions happen under the sea.

A long dormant volcano has just erupted for the first time in recorded history. The Hayli Gubbi volcano in Ethiopia's Afar Region erupted for the first time in at least 12,000 years, according to Volcano Discovery, a website that tracks active volcanoes around the world.

This was something else entirely.

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.
