Volcanic eruptions are getting more active lately, and with that comes a wild danger called lava bombs. These are giant, glowing chunks of molten rock that volcanoes literally hurl into the air. They can fly for miles and smash into anything—like in 2018, when one exploded through a tourist boat in Hawaii and injured a bunch of people. Scientists sometimes call them “gray spheres,” and knowing about them could actually save your life if you’re near a volcano. The scary part? They don’t just fall—they fly, making them super unpredictable. So if a volcano's rumbling, keep your distance, because lava bombs turn the sky into a firestorm. #brightside Credit: CC BY 3.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0: Montserrat: By giggel, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=54500777 Plymouth sinking: By giggel, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=54500760 Plymouth sinking 2: By giggel, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=54500760 CC BY 2.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0: Pele’s hair NASA: By NASA Goddard Space Flight Center – https://flic.kr/p/wZhrdo, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=51482100 Pele's hair volcano: By James St. John – https://flic.kr/p/oTuHp6, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=95528384 CC BY-SA 3.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/: Volcanic bombs: By Momotarou2012, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=23188796 Ribbon bomb: By Photaro, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=30057839 National Park of Timanfaya: By Luis Miguel Bugallo Sánchez (Lmbuga), https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=17009183 Erta Ale-Cheveux de Pelé: By Ji-Elle, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=31134498 Eyjafjallajökull: By Terje Sørgjerd, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=17925828 CC BY-SA 4.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0: Bomba basáltica: By Mike Peel, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=128227535 Hs_0625a-0002-001: By Frank A.
