True or false? this 2018 eruption of kilauea was the first historical volcanic caldera collapse ever witnessed by modern cultures. hint: the answer is in the kilauea story told by kyle

False.

Explanation:

It is false because between 2014 and 2015 there was a collapse of Bardarbunga’s caldera in Iceland; this collapse gave scientists, researchers and people an opportunity to witness and collect the most useful data ever; everything could be measured. However, it is true that the caldera collapse at Kilauea was viewed by more scientific equipment (i.e., thermal cameras, drones, etc.) than at any other time in modern and ancient history—including 2014 and 2015. According to Kyle, the collapse at Kilauea was so unique and unlike any other eruption.
