A needle into a huge Magma Chamber is not going to create an explosive effect. Does he sound sure about that . Yeah, im sure itll be fine. Also, lara looks at the livers being kept alive in a lab. And heres a question you never though you wanted the answer to. So, if you put a cat on the moon and dropped it, it would still be able to right itself . We could try, but i guess it should work. Look, trust me, its all to do with a Space Bot Jumping for joy. Iceland is one of the most volcanic places on earth, sitting on top of the mid atlantic ridge, where two Tectonic Plates are pulling apart. That means the country has become known for its geothermal power as water is heated from the earth below. But now, at the krafla volcano, theres a more extreme plan under way. Yeah, a daring scientific project to drill deep into the rock to create the worlds first underground magma observatory. Blimey Adrienne Murrays been there to find out more.

In this part of iceland is one of the worlds most active volcanic hotspots. Krafla has erupted 30 times in 1000 years and last blue in the 1980s and though it may sound crazy, scientists are now preparing to drill into it. The idea is to learn more about how volcanoes behave so that we can better predict eruptions and also tap into a superhot source of energy. Volcanoes can it be spectacular, but they are also devastating. Around the world, millions of people live close to them. Here in ice
Now on bbc news, its time for hardtalk. Welcome to hardtalk with me, zeinab badawi. My guest is one of the most brilliant scientists in the world and hes african. His ground breaking research is helping tackle diseases that Kill Thousands every year. Cameroonian born Professor Christian Happi gave up a successful career at Harvard University in the United States and moved back to africa. Hes setting up a World Class Laboratory in nigeria, which will have a pandemic early detection system. He believes africa could become a global centre of knowledge about infectious diseases such as covid. How realistic is his vision . Professor christian happi in ibadan, southern nigeria, welcome to hardtalk. How worried are you about the third wave of covid in africa . Weve seen some countries are quite badly affected, such as South Africa. Thank you. Im very concerned about a third wave of covid in africa. Weve seen countries like South Africa, uganda, kenya, liberia, Sierra Leone as im speaking now,
