Volcanoes affecting air traffic in Europe from miles away.



PEOPLE IF YOU HAVE NO OIL TO SERVICE YOUR CARS, CAN YOUR CAR WORK ? THE ANSWER IS NO. SO IF YOU TAKE THE OIL OUT OF THE EARTH, HOW LONG WILL THE EARTH WORK ? THE ANSWER IS TIME WILL TELL, BECAUSE WE DEFINITELY DON'T CARE AND THE EARTH SEEMS TO BE RESPONDING IN LIKE MANNER.
Volcanoes in the north, earthquakes in the south and all over, a common sense will dictate Hurricanes and Tsunami's will be the forte for later on this year. 2010.
Here are some facts and history involving Volcanoes, Earthquakes, Hurricanes and Tsunami's.Scientists conducted an investigation, in the 1980s. They studied the composition of the ash thrown out by any volcano. They found that the dust contained fine particles of glass, pulverized rock and silicates. This explain why air traffic is at a stand still during a eruption, it is to dangerous to chance. Pilots are accustomed to flying ‘planes in extremely bad weather and can handle poor visibility. But with volcanic ash this is not the only problem. The ash can destroy the most important parts of the ‘plane's engines, when it collides at high speeds, and can have a destructive effect blowing away surfaces inside the engine. These particles can fuse together when entering the engine where there is extremely high heat, causing damage to the electronics and causing the engine to cease. Volcanic eruptions are also accompanied by clouds of hydrochloric acid and sulphuric gas. The suddenly active volcano in Iceland catapults a tremendous amount of steam and dust into the high atmosphere (around 8000 m height). This plume is propagated by the wind towards Western and Central Europe. Given the tiny size of most of these particles and the wind force, they remain in the atmosphere for quite some time and affect the engines of the ‘planes flying through them.
