∙ 13y agoAs of 2010, Popocatepetl is erupting. According to the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History, continuous activity since Jan. 2005 has resulted in phreatic explosions, which occur when molten lava contacts water. In Popocatepetl's case the water inside the crater comes from the heat of the rising magma melting the glaciers on its peak.
