The volcano Etna in Italia captivated those who visit it these days due to its fascinating rings of vortices volcanicwhich also put the inhabitants of nearby communities such as Catania on alert, in Sicily.

It is a rare natural phenomenon by which almost perfect natural circles of gas are produced, emitted by the volcano under very specific conditions.

The gas mass rises rapidly through the central part of the duct, favoring the formation of rings by wrapping the gas around itself in a vortex movement. These rings have led the residents of the area to start calling Etna the “Lady of the Rings”.

Behncke added that from July 2023 to today, the Boca Nueva crater exhaled thousands of these smoke rings, which are expected to continue.
