congratulations: you have made a new volcano in a location much more difficult to predict

Hmmmm. Looks like making there worlds biggest canon has zero downsides imho.
More like a champagne bottle than a cannon really. The concrete/asphalt cork will just go flying and barely slow down the eruption. Might make the initial part of the eruption a bit more "spurty," since there's bound to be a ton of kinetic energy behind that cork being ejected.
If we put enough corn kernels it would fill up the volcano with popcorn and it will just shoot popcorn all over the tri state area 🧠
If pressure builds up we won't risk anything because the cement would just be propoulsed in the outter space and not hurt anyone.
's brilliant plan for reaching Mars
Why has noone ever experimented with placing a very large spaceship in the mouth of an active volcano? And when erupting, the space ship would fly to space without needing any fuel. No resources wasted on multiple stage rockets just to carry up fuel a few km, all that's needed is an enormous spaceship in the shape of a cement plug.
They did manage to use a modified battleship cannon to fire things into orbit. I think the main problem is not knowing how much explosive power you'll get for a given eruption.
Duc(k/t) tape is cheaper
When Kilauea was making news for erupting, I showed my (now ex) partner a photo of the lava flow over the road with hazard barriers to keep people away.
Her response was to ask why they didn't just divert the flow away from where people are.
I just realised, that I first learned about pressure as a kid, when watching cartoon characters trying too stop a leak using body parts.
Big badda boom
This creates a bomb, the interesting thing is does the cork or the side blow first
Prevent harmful eruptions with one simple trick. Frees up more time for your other hobbies, like making pipe bombs.
The people that get off watching those pimple popping videos on YouTube would literally NUT to this one weird TRICK
The excellent podcast That's Absurd Please Elaborate answered this: https://thatsabsurdshow.com/episodes/005-scores-mutual-nightmares
TL;DL: big mistake, big boom
Somebody didn't see those mount St Helens videos....
I'm sure Super Glue would work too.
I thought we just needed a good guy with a volcano.
