The huge active volcano under Yellowstone National Park creates many low-level earthquakes each year, but park scientists say there’s not much danger of eruption. The underground heat does occasionally cause problems, like when a three-mile stretch of road melted in July 2014. (Photo: Yellowstone National Park)
