Mt. Etna continues to erupt from its northeast crater, with eruptive activity first starting on December 27th, and nearby Campi Flegrei has been showing exponential increases in earthquake activity for years now since 2020. Situated directly between these two large volcanoes - Mt. Etna being Europe's "largest" and Campi Flegrei being a known supervolcano - is a massive submarine volcano and caldera structure nearly 150 km across. Scientist call the central submarine volcano Marsili Volcano, but Marsili Volcano may in fact be MUCH LARGER than officially recognized, making it a supervolcano and by far Europe's largest. Problem is, it's hidden beneath the waves of the ocean, making it difficult to study and leading to an "out of sight, out of mind" effect. Geophysicist Stefan Burns describes the recent activity at Mt. Etna and Campi Flegrei, and speculates on the true nature of Marsili Volcano.
