The Volcano that Stopped the World

Following the chaos of the largest air space disruption in history after Icelands Eyjafjallajokull volcano spread a dust cloud across Europe, this timely documentary looks at the science behind the headlines of this extraordinary story. It follows British geologist Nick Petford as he heads into the heart of the eruption zone and explores the geological and scientific background leading up to the eruption. It looks at the dangers posed by the ash and its affect on aircraft and aviation, and retells the story of British Airways Pilot Eric Moody, whose infamous flight into volcanic ash near Indonesia in 1982 has triggered so much concern. And, it explores the impact of further possible eruptions to the UK, Europe and the World.
