Volcano Tourism
Saw a program yesterday which featured a copter tour to a live & active volcano. It was bizzare next only to space tourism. 4 or 5 men from different parts of the world (and obviously who weren’t volcanologists) were taken to some place in Russia where a volcano had started spewing smoke. After 4 unsuccessful trips, the group finally succeeded in seeing volcanic activity. The sights were breathtaking & reminded me of some tornado videos.

Nathan,
think i saw the program in the Discovery’s Travel & Living channel. its just that i was fascinated with such a concept named volcano tourism & there were ordinary people interested in seeing volcanoes erupting live. other than that, sorry haven’t got much info.
a site related though : http://discoverychannel.co.in/eruptionnight/featur e3.shtml

arvind
