We may indeed have been born to the end of the world. Scientists recently studied lava flows. They evaluated the results of these observations. And they reached very interesting results. A very rare isotope was found in this leaking lava. Scientists think that these lavas come from the earth’s core. Here are the details…
Volcanic eruptions bring messages from the Earth’s core!
Researchers examined ancient lava flows from Baffin Island, a large landmass in Canada’s Arctic Archipelago. It contains the highest proportions of helium-3, helium-4 and a third isotope that scientists have ever found in terrestrial volcanic rocks, he said.
Researchers believe the lava flows may be coming from the Earth’s core. This is evidence that there is a leak in the Earth’s core. It also shows that this caused lava to leak onto the planet’s surface. It’s unclear what this might mean for the core. Because we know nothing about our planet’s core other than the fact that it exists.

In their statement, scientists stated that a comet exploded in space and was coming towards Earth.
So how did the researchers reach this conclusion? It all starts with helium-3. This isotope is considered an extremely rare element. Most of the helium-3 in the universe dates back to the Big Bang, 13.8 billion years ago. Some of this helium-3 got trapped in the Earth’s core when the Earth formed. The recent discovery of helium-3 in moon crystals has aroused curiosity.
Fortunately, this leak does not seem dangerous, at least for now. Researchers say there aren’t enough helium-3 atoms in the rocks to be dangerous. He also thinks that because it is a noble gas, it does not interact chemically with other elements. Moreover, the area where the lava flows reach Baffin Island is extremely remote. Therefore, people have to make a lot of effort to visit. In this way, the risk of exposure to people is not very high.
