Is Yellowstone going to pop how big is it going to be?
Yes eventually Yellowstone is going to errupt again. It is thought to go off every 600,000 years and it has been 640,000 years since the last erruption. If it does errupt it will kill almost everyone, because it is a super volcano. Hot magma from the volcano will kill people near it, if that doesn't kill you, beathing in the volcanic ash which is made of silica (what glass is made of) will shred your lungs, and if you survive those two things ash will block out sunlight for years making it a lot like a nuclear winter... it will be very cold and there will be little to no food.
Where are 2 hot spots located in the us?
Yellowstone and Hawaii
When does the Yellowstone volcano erupt?
About 1 in 730,000. Yellowstones last super volcanic eruption was approx. 640,000 years ago. It's average time between eruptions is 730,000 years. Was a Super Volcano every 600,000 to 800,000 years. That's the scientific numbers, I say maybe a little more dangerous because it erupts every 600-800 thousand years, and it has been 640 thousand already. If we start seeing increased activity and earthquakes around yellowstone then keep an eye on it, but if the volcano activity just settles down and it sleeps for another 150,000 years, don't hold your breath yet.
How are satellite images used to predict volcanic eruption?
Satellites are used to monitor the changes in the shape of the mountains. Specifically this is done rather often on the big island of Hawaii to make sure that none of the two dormant volcanoes (Mauna Loa and Hualalai) are changing shape which would indicate magma movement into the upper Plumbing of the volcanoes. Often times the same type of radar imagery is used to reconstruct the changes throughout a volcanic eruption, this radar imagery service is also used on the Yellowstone Super Caldera. Examples of how this has been used can be seen on both the Hawaii Volcanoes Observatory website and Yellowstone Volcano Observatory website. (See related links).

Why does Yellowstone have hot spots?
Yellowstone National Park sits on top of a volcano caldera, approximately 28x47 miles across, formed by a hot spot (a crack in the earth's crust which brings magma up to the surface), a result of the forming of the Rocky Mountains about 50 million years ago. Geysers are a result of groundwater which is being heated by the magma underground and then, when the heat and pressure are too great, explode in an amazing display of water and steam. About 53% of the world's geysers are located in Yellowstone National Park. Other thermal features in Yellowstone include fumeroles (mostly steam, little water), hot springs, and mudpots.
