Scientists Create First 3D Images of Popocatépetl Volcano

Scientists have created the first 3D images of the inside of Popocatépetl, a big and active volcano in Mexico.

They used special machines to measure movements and sounds inside the volcano.

This helps them see where the hot rock called magma is stored.

The volcano is very tall and can affect many people nearby.

The scientists had to climb the volcano many times to collect information.

They used computers to make sense of the data.

This will help people stay safe if the volcano erupts.

The volcano has been active for a long time and sometimes makes smoke and ash.

The scientists found that the magma is stored in different places inside the volcano.

They also found that the volcano makes more sounds and movements on one side.

This research will help scientists learn more about how volcanoes work.
