The Largest Magma Chamber on the Planet; The Altiplano Puna Magma Body

The planet's largest magma chamber contains enough molten rock to cover the entirety of the United States in 131 meters or 430 feet thick of lava. This massive volume of molten rock, encompassing a volume of 500,000 cubic kilometers can be found deep underneath a section of the central Andes mountain range. Known as the Altiplano-Puna Magma Body, it has fed numerous caldera forming eruptions during the last 10 million years.

Note: This video's thumbnail image does not represent a photo of the Altiplano-Puna Magma Body as no actual photos exist of it due to its depth. Instead, it displays a heavy modified 2018 photograph of one of the Kilauea volcano's lava flows in Hawaii.
