"Steamboat Geyser's Spectacular 400-Foot Water Show Stuns Onlookers"

Steamboat Geyser, the world's tallest active geyser located in Yellowstone National Park, erupted with a spectacular display of hot water and steam, shooting up to 400 feet into the sky. Unlike the predictable Old Faithful, Steamboat Geyser's eruptions are erratic and unpredictable. Scientists are still unsure of the reasons behind its irregular behavior. However, Steamboat has been more active in recent years, with a record number of eruptions in 2019 and 2020. Visitors can look for signs of minor activity to increase their chances of witnessing a major eruption, but there is no definitive timetable. Despite the diminishing frequency of eruptions, Steamboat Geyser remains a beloved and awe-inspiring feature of Yellowstone National Park.

The northern lights, also known as the aurora borealis, may be visible in Michigan and 16 other states next week. The best chance to see them will be between 10 p.m. and 2 a.m. local time, away from city lights and light pollution. The phenomenon is caused by solar winds and Earth's magnetic field. In late April, a geomagnetic storm created lights visible in over 30 U.S. states.
