Krakatoa

When Krakatoa exploded in 1883, the roar was heard over 4,500 kilometres away. Join us to discover why it's only a matter of time before it happens again.


When the volcanic island of Krakatoa exploded on 26 August 1883, the roar was heard over 4,500 kilometres away. Ash clouds turned day to night and 40-metre-high waves killed thousands. Join us to discover why the eruption was so violent and why it’s only a matter of time before it happens again.
