So how much time do we have before the ash clouds reach us?

Before Yellowstone erupts.

A day, maybe two, which is why it's imperative you begin the evacuation.

We've already evacuated major portions of Wyoming and Montana.

If we start now, we can still save the majority of the population.

Of Wyoming?

Of North America.

With the combined resources of the USGS and DMA at our

disposal, and you expect us to accept the loss of the United States?

You need to understand this could affect the whole world.

Look.

Earthquakes, magma flows, those ash clouds we saw over

Iceland, they are nothing compared to what's going to happen next.

Volcanic ash will cover the entire planet.

It won't just be the beginning of a new Ice Age.

It'll be the beginning of a new Dark Age.

Well, Kate, you have got to give me something,

anything that I can tell the President and his advisors.

Okay.

All right?

Have a look at this.

This is, uh, something I've been working on for a while.

It's a little bit radical, but basically it deals with force, magma

cooling, and crystallization as it relates to the kinetics of nucleation.

Nucleation? I thought you were a volcanologist.

I am. I started as a physicist at Cambridge, and, uh...

I don't need your full bio.

I just need to know if it's going to work.

Simon.

Well?

Excuse me.

-Honestly? -It's incomplete.

I don't see how we can turn a series of

half-baked equations into any kind of working model.

Granted, it's a bit rough, but if you consider

the underlying principle, then I think you'll see...

What I see is something that's years away

from any kind of practical implementation.

That's assuming it's even possible in the first place.

I'm sorry, there's just no way.

I can't possibly endorse this.

No smoking.

Sorry.

You know, maybe...

maybe we could flood it.

Flood what?

The supervolcano.

She's right.

Yellowstone Lake's sitting right on top of it.

We could drain the lake onto the main magma

chamber, cool it before it has a chance to erupt.

That would still create massive amounts of steam, though.

I mean, enough to cause an eruption on the scale of Mount St. Helens.

Hold on, I'm confused. I thought we were

talking about preventing the eruption, not causing it.

Yellowstone's going to erupt one way or another.

We might just be able to limit the casualties to thousands instead of millions.

I'm not ready to accept thousands.

I'm willing to bet your superiors are.

Top of the morning to you.

It's Irish and English.

Yellowstone is a marvel.

This happens to be a tower filled with gadgets.

I get that I've invaded your turf.

Believe me, Charlie, I wish you were out there as much as you do.

Right.

I'm sorry, Charlie.

What I meant to say was that we're all trying to do important work here.

Important to you, maybe.

A couple of kids who were where they weren't supposed to be.

I don't know, Kate.

I've never seen anything like this before.

There's a reason it's called Boiling River.

You know, there's steam vents in there that can raise the

temperatures in the hot springs to deadly levels within seconds.

You know that. According to Josh, these kids weren't in the Boiling River.

Yeah, but look at the gardener.

Sure.

This tapping's driving me nuts.

I mean, what are you doing?

Is this chemistry, or is this volcanology?

Well, you know, before I got into volcanology, I

dabbled in a few different fields, like

geochemistry, quantum physics, gravitational time dilation.

Doesn't sound like dabbling to me.

This is a side project, something I've been working on for a while.

It deals with the crystallization of olivine,

which is a mineral found in magma containing...

Could you just give me the volcanology for dummies version, please?

Yeah.

Well, it's basically the idea is, is that if you could force

magma into a cooled state, then you could possibly prevent eruptions.

Hmm.

I guess it's not that simple, huh?

Well, to be honest, it's more science fiction than science,

but if I tried to publish it, I'd get laughed out of the field.

Oh, come on, now.

Just have a little more faith in

yourself and worry less about what others think.

I wouldn't expect you to understand.

You've got no idea of the academic landscape.

Kate, you don't need to be defensive.

Last month, geologists at the Yellowstone Volcanic Observatory

announced they had recorded a notable swarm of earthquakes, the

largest such instance since the famous holiday swarm of

2008-2009, when a staggering 900

earthquakes were reported in less than 12 days.

Small earthquakes are common, of course.

Yellowstone registered over 50 during the same period last

year, but scientists have expressed concern regarding the

prolonged period of accelerated caldera uplift now in its

seventh year, indicating an unprecedented era of volcanic unrest.

YVO has recently entered into a new partnership in the

hopes of monitoring these events more closely by installing

a series of radio-equipped temperature sensors to document

changes in water flow and heat discharge in the Norris Geyser Basin.

Wait, let me get this straight.

You're telling me that within the next 48 hours, Yellowstone will erupt?

Yes.

It will be the end of life on this planet.

Why are you only telling me this now?

Why cut it so close?

The super-eruption created a massive disturbance in the Earth's

magnetic field, leaving a marker on the curvature of space-time itself.

I'm sure you've noticed the signal is getting stronger the closer we get.

We spent all this time developing not only

a solution, but a way to get it back to you.

You and Charlie are going to stop the eruption.

How?

I'll tell you, but you have to do exactly as I say it.

major vent opens up along the perimeter of the caldera.

You have to start evacuating the park.

Tamara, hi.

You realize that I only just now learned about the cloud seeding from the news.

Yeah, well, you know, I, um...

I don't want to bother you with every little detail.

Well, it's time you did.

Now, my advisors have put together several

strategies for dealing with the super-eruption.

Well, you know, I've actually been working on

some additional ideas of my own, but I-I need...

I need more time.

We don't have time for ideas.

We need solutions.

Tamara.

We believe drilling into the main magma chamber could relieve the pressure.

Now, it would create additional gas and

lava venting, but that's a small price to pay.

Another option is a high-yield detonation

inside the chamber, vaporizing most of the magma.

No, no, Simon, that is not gonna work.

I mean, even if you could drill down that far that fast, which you

can't, by the way, all you would do is destabilize the caldera to the

point where the magma pressure would cause the eruptions in the first place.

-It's a... -it's a crazy idea.

We're aware there are inherent risks, but unlike your...

your cloud-seeding solution for the ash cloud, we can't simply add water.

Yeah, we can.

We can flood it.

-OK? -You with me? -All right?

Come on, Daddy.

OK, so the plan to drain Yellowstone Lake into the magma

chamber, which was your plan, by the way, is going to fail.

That's right.

Well, I assume you didn't come all this way just

to tell us that you wasted our time and resources.

I'm going to need you to keep an open mind, Tamara.

A really open mind.

Right, over the past few years, I've been studying

the phenomenon of magma cooling and crystallization.

Just get there faster, Miss Brooks.

Basically, I believe that we can solidify

the magma by forced cooling.

Explain.

It's complicated.

We would need to inject this chemical solution directly into the magma.

Would it be overly optimistic of me to think you've

got any kind of evidence that this is going to work?

Only my simulations.

Mayor?

Now, we would need to get the delivery mechanism as deep as

possible into the magma chamber so that it can react with the

denser stratified elements near the bottom and work its way back up to the top.

Is that feasible?

This is years ahead of anything I've ever seen before.

I can't make heads or tails of it.

It doesn't seem complete.

What are these gaps in the formula?

Those gaps?

They're just temporary placeholders for a few

final variables dealing with crystallization catalyzing.

I don't see how we can turn a series of half-baked

equations into any kind of practical working model.

I'll finish the equation, Simon.

Just because you don't understand, it doesn't mean I'm wrong.

Trust me.

This is going to work.

Tamara, I can't possibly endorse this.

With all due respect, I don't need you to.

I'm the expert in this field, and I'm telling you, this is our only chance.

And if it merely precipitates a super eruption?

It won't.

Not this time.

So how did you come up with this?

Well, it's, uh...

Complicated?

All right, whatever you need, just make it happen.

Six percent.

I can figure out six percent.

How can it be?

Trap in. This won't take long.

Charlie, for crying out loud, get in.
