Ambrym, in the Malampa Province, is an active volcanic island and can be found of Google Maps.
According to Volcano Discovery, Ambrym volcano was last recorded erupting in February this year.
The island’s main volcano is 12-km wide and is one of the most active volcanoes in the world.
However, thanks to Google, no longer is it just the most thrill-seeking adventurers that can experience this natural wonder.
Since 2005, Google Maps has been bringing action and adventure into the public’s home with its handy world search tool.
In March last year, Google sort out the help of volcano explores Geoff Mackey and Chris Horsly who climbed down 1,300 feet into the volcano whilst wearing Google’s 360-degree cameras.
Now the public can virtually explore inside the active volcano – leaving the harnesses well alone.
Footage captured from Google, reveals the sheer size of the volcano in comparison to a man sitting at the edge.
The lava lake itself is roughly the size of two football pitches but together.
In a news statement, Geoff explained: “It’s like looking into the surface of the sun”. Horsey added: “By putting this place on the map, people will realise what a beautiful world we live in.”
Amazingly the volcano is not the only thing on the island, 7,000 people live in the rainforest at the bottom of the volcano.
On more than one occasion, the erupting volcano has threatened the livelihoods of the Endu village.
This isn’t the first time Google has captured a fire phenomenon.
The Darvaza Gas Crater referred to as “Door to Hell” and been burning for 40 years and baffles scientists.
The burning fire pit is 226 ft in diameter and 98 ft deep and acts as an enormous natural gas fire.
The site in the Karakum Desert in Turkmenistan is a popular tourist site but can now be visited by all.
