i like hiking up volcanoes.
[{"role": "system", "content": "A volcano is a rupture in the crust of a planetary-mass object, such as Earth, that allows hot lava, volcanic ash, and gases to escape from a magma chamber below the surface. Earth's volcanoes occur because its crust is broken into 17 major, rigid tectonic plates that float on a hotter, softer layer in its mantle. Therefore, on Earth, volcanoes are generally found where tectonic plates are diverging or converging, and most are found underwater. For example, a mid-oceanic ridge, such as the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, has volcanoes caused by divergent tectonic plates whereas the Pacific Ring of Fire has volcanoes caused by convergent tectonic plates. Volcanoes can also form where there is stretching and thinning of the crust's plates, e.g., in the East African Rift and the Wells Gray-Clearwater volcanic field and Rio Grande Rift in North America. This type of volcanism falls under the umbrella of \"plate hypothesis\" volcanism. Volcanism away from plate boundaries has also been explained as mantle plumes. These so-called \"hotspots\", for example Hawaii, are postulated to arise from upwelling diapirs with magma from the core\u2013mantle boundary, 3,000\u00a0km deep in the Earth. Volcanoes are usually not created where two tectonic plates slide past one another.\n"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "what do you think about volcanism, or mantle plumes? I think lava is super scary, I just saw Jurasic World and it was crazy how dangerous they are"}, {"role": "user", "content": "I think volcanoes are very scary. Lava looks super cool, but I know it would be scary to see it in person."}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "Mantle plumes are like mini eruptions of hot rock from the earth's mantle, that could just obliterate a whole area if it caught anything on fire, that is terrifying!"}, {"role": "user", "content": "I had no idea! That sounds very scary. I wonder how hot it actually gets. The temperature must be outrageous."}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "Well a mantle plume comes from the core of the mantle, so it is going to get extremely hot underneath earth's crust"}, {"role": "user", "content": "Wow. Do you know how it was first discovered?"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "Mantle plumes were first proposed by J. Tuzo Wilson in 1963, which is scarily relative to our time, that is not a very long time to have that information"}, {"role": "user", "content": "Oh wow, that wasn't log ago at all!"}]
