Exploration of Ethiopia's Aaala Volcano

The video follows a team of explorers led by Franc Tessier and Irene Margaritas, who venture to Ethiopia's Aaala volcano to collect lava samples. The volcano has been active for nearly a century, and the team aims to study its lava lake, known as the 'hellhole of creation.' Despite the challenges posed by extreme heat, the team manages to collect samples, hoping to uncover new geological insights about the volcano and the Earth's formation.

What is the main objective of the team led by Franc Tessier and Irene Margaritas?

• To study the wildlife around the volcano
