Description
One of the many "other worldly" acid pools in Yellowstone National Park. Yellowstone is home to many amazing geothermal features. It sits over a volcanic hotspot, and the geological activity superheats rainwater that has percolated deep underground. While underground, the water can pick up a variety of volcano-related chemicals, like hydrogen sulfide and carbon dioxide. As the water rises back up to the surface, heat-tolerant microbes can convert hydrogen sulfide to sulfuric acid. That, plus dissolved carbon dioxide, contributes to the acidic pH of some of Yellowstone's hot springs and steam vents.
You will never see anything else like it on our planet for sure!
