Drillers break into magma chamber


Hot stuff here. Anyone fancy a holiday in Hawaii?

Drillers looking for geothermal energy in Hawaii have dug a well right into a magma chamber. The magma specialist said it was like "chilled pancake syrup". They were surprised how hot it was and how close to the surface. Did nobody tell them about Hawaii's volcanoes?!! Nice video here too from the BBC. Link here.

Largest floating Xmas tree lights up


Have a look at this short clip and tell me if your Xmas tree is just as impressive? Hardly a green xmas, however!
