Researchers have discovered an “enormous mass of warm rock” rising underneath part of New England.

But, a major volcanic eruption in the area isn’t likely for millions of years, according to researchers at Rutgers University, noting that the research is “groundbreaking” in its scope and “challenges textbook concepts of geology.” Some reports have described it as a “supervolcano,” but unlike the one sitting underneath Yellowstone Park.
