Is this the place Jules Verne was thinking of in “Journey to the Center of the Earth” ?

EXCERPTS

“Thrihnukagigur volcano is dormant – it last erupted over 4,000 years ago. There are no indications of it erupting again in the near future. The volcano’s name, mostly unpronounceable for anyone other than locals, would be directly translated as ‘Three Peaks Crater’. The name comes from Árni B. Stefánsson, who was the first to explore the vault and who has pleaded the case for making it accessible for years.

“The beauty of the crater mostly consists in the various colourations found inside it and its enormous – and to some extent intimidating – size. To put it in context, the ground space is equivalent to almost three full-sized basketball courts planted next to each other and the height is such that it would easily fit full sized Statue of Liberty into the chamber. So make no mistake – it’s huge!” . . . Go to web page

NOTE: Booking have now stopped for 2013.  We will start booking in January for 2014. The tour in to Thrihnukagigur Volcano is operatad by 3H Travel, a licenced tour operator in Iceland.

Journey into a volcano in Iceland

Published on Jul 11, 2013

In June 2013 I went to Iceland and took a trip inside a volcano! Its the only place on earth you can do this and they started with excursions in 2012. So when I went down I joined the group of only 2400 people in the world that have been inside an volcano. To put that in perspective, As of January 3, 2013, only 530 people are known to have gone into space according to the FAI guideline. And that’s Awesome!

This week, Sir Ranulph Fiennes, the world’s greatest living explorer, released details of his latest undertaking.

Departing at the end of the year, Sir Ranulph will lead a team of six men, including Brian Newham, Ian Prickett and Spencer Smirl, to make the first crossing of the continent of Antarctica during the Antarctic winter. This is one of the last great journeys remaining on our planet. . . . Read Complete Report

Over the years I have pointed out several major establishment scientific findings that fit into the 1913 Hollow Earth Theory put forth by Marshall B. Gardner as good as, if not  better than, the ever-changing establishment Theory of the make-up of our world. 

Some of the “Hollow Earth Science” findings are Huge Mountains, Valleys found in Depths of the Earth, (Inner Lands)  Earth’s Core Spinning Faster than Crust (Inner Sun),  Polar fountains fill magnetosphere with ions, (Fountains flowing OUT) 2 Other Layers Reported Around the Earth’s Core 1,800 Miles Down and Oxygen. . .

Huge Stockpile of Oxygen Found Deep Inside Earth
Jeanna Bryner
Date: 01 October 2007 Time: 04:38 AM ET
A mineral that acts like a sponge beneath Earth’s surface stores more oxygen than expected, keeping our planet from becoming dry and inhospitable like Mars.

The key to the abundant oxygen storage is the mineral majorite, which exists deep below Earth’s surface in the mantle. Without the oxygen stockpile, Earth would probably be a barren planet hostile to life, authors of a study suggest in the Sept. 27 issue of the journalNature.

The researchers examined majorite in the lab under conditions mimicking the Earth’s deep interior and also near the planet’s surface. The results showed that under deep-Earth conditions of high temperature and pressure, majorite stores large amounts of oxygen. When the temperature and pressure were decreased, as occurs near Earth’s surface, the majorite decomposed and released the oxygen.

“The Earth’s upper mantle can store, therefore, much more oxygen than previously expected,” . . . Read Complete Report

UFOTV® Presents : Journey To The Hollow Earth

Uploaded by  on Jan 2, 2011

This film presents the history, mythology & folklore that the earth has a hollow realm, a mystical and physical place of great mystery and wonder. The hollow earth theory is represented in the history of many diverse cultures throughout the world. The Avalon of Camelot, the Garden of Eden, Paradise Lost, Shangri-La and Valhalla are names assigned to a mystical and physical place thought by some to house prehistoric animals and plants and by others to hide alien beings bent on conquering the outer Earth. . . .

EDITOR’s NOTE: I have proven through personal research beyond a shadow of doubt that the so-called “Missing Diary of Admiral Richard E. Byrd” is a plagiarized fake. You can read my EXCLUSIVE Research Report here. And the proposed flight “beyond the poles” talked about in this video never happened. They were never able to secure the funds. . . EDITOR

Journey to the centre of the volcano… Brave photographer takes trip into the heart of dormant beast to photograph stunning colours left behind by the lava

By EDDIE WRENN

They are ferocious when on the attack and unpredictable in nature – but absolutely stunning when viewed from the inside.

For these are the spectacular images taken by photographer Lurie Belegurschi, who descended into the heart of Thrihnukagigur volcano, near Reykjavik in Iceland, to show the extraordinary beauty of the magma chambers buried deep within the dormant volcano.

Perhaps the explorer felt secure as he descended to 120 metres – the equivalent of three Statues of Liberty piled one on top of the other – because it has been 4,000 years since the volcano last erupted.

But as he descended in a basket attached to a crane, the old mantra must have run through his head: It’s not a question of if, it’s when. . . . Read Complete Report + photos and videos
