This live demo brings the boom and is sure to make guests erupt with excitement! 

Learn about the different factors in volcanic eruption and the varying types of volcanoes around the world. This isn’t surface-level science: we’ll use a miniature display to dig deeper into what causes the magma to melt and rise up, as well as the role that viscosity and gases play in the process. 

It’s an explosive presentation — you’re going to lava it!
