Scientists are planning to drill into a volcano's magma chamber to harness its powerful energy. The project, called "Drilling into the Magma Chamber," aims to tap into the intense heat and pressure inside the volcano to generate electricity. Led by Dr. Albert Borkent, the team of scientists will use a specialized drilling rig to reach the magma chamber, located several kilometers beneath the Earth's surface. They will then insert pipes and cables to extract the heat and convert it into…
