The Cataclysmic Eruption of Krakatoa

On the morning of August 27, 1883, one of the most destructive natural disasters of the 19th century occurred between the islands of Java and Sumatra, in what is today the nation of Indonesia. 

After weeks of low-level rumblings, a volcanic eruption totally obliterated the mountain that it had formed. 

The devastation wasn’t limited to the immediate area around the volcano. The blast’s effects literally affected the entire planet.

Learn more about the 1883 eruption of Krakatoa and its devastating impact on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
