WHAT TO SEE. Go down two floors and you’ll be seeing “Fiery Earth”.

An expedition to Krakatoa, the Indonesian island whose eruption in 1883 has stirred up studies and reports from the RS.

From documentations on air pressure waves to sunset glows to poems and books and its Subsequent Phenomena.

Side discussions include the classical views on volcanoes, Pompeii, and natural philosophers e.g. Jesuit, A. Kircher, who personally visited them.
