Chaitén volcano in Chile erupted in 2008 , spewing rocks and ash a dozen miles into the air.

The eruption released over 750 billion liters of lava, enough to fill more than 300,000 Olympic-sized swimming pools.

An international team of scientists set sail on the Schmidt Ocean Institute’s Falkor (too) research vessel in September to trace the volcanic ash's flow and assess its effects.
