A hydrothermal explosion has created a 13-foot blue water feature in Yellowstone National Park. The explosion appears to have happened between December 2024 and May 2025.  While rare, hydrothermal explosions can result in injuries or death to humans and animals.  A brand-new discovery in a popular national park has “explosive” beginnings. Geologists in Yellowstone National Park recently discovered a new …

Observant visitors to Yellowstone National Park’s Norris Geyser Basin, the home of the park’s famous Steamboat Geyser and the hottest and most dynamic geyser basin in the park, might notice something new this year: a gaping hole filled with milky blue water. The hole was discovered by Yellowstone geologists back in April during their first visit to the Norris Basin …

It might be a swarm of Earth tremors or a minor steam-driven explosion that sets the hearts of news editors and disaster preppers racing. Or, on occasions like this, a new piece of research that sheds light …

In April, when Yellowstone National Park geologists made their first visit this year to the Norris Geyser Basin, they encountered a new feature they hadn’t seen before. They were checking the area’s temperature logging stations, a routine maintenance job – but since their last visit, something was different. Where previously there had been a rather featureless patch of ground at …

In a surprising discovery last April, geologists working at Yellowstone National Park’s Norris Geyser Basin uncovered a previously undocumented thermal pool. Found during routine maintenance at temperature logging stations, the pool is located in the Porcelain Basin subbasin. This new thermal pool, measuring about 13 feet wide, features clear blue water with a temperature of approximately 109 °F (43 °C). It sits …

Last April, geologists conducting routine maintenance at temperature logging stations in Yellowstone National Park’s Norris Geyser Basin found something unexpected: a previously undocumented thermal pool of blue water. The newly identified pool, found in the Porcelain Basin subbasin, is about 13 feet (4 meters) wide, its idyllic blue water is around 109 degrees Fahrenheit (43 degrees Celsius), and the water’s …

Yellowstone National Park has announced the discovery of a new thermal feature — a 13-foot baby blue hot spring in the Norris Geyser Basin. In a Monday announcement, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) reports the new pool emerged sometime around Christmas and was first spotted in April. The feature doesn’t have a name (and probably won’t), but it’s an exciting new addition …
