In the misty wilderness of the Pacific Northwest, where towering evergreens touch the clouds and mountains pierce the horizon, a silent menace is awakening beneath the sea.
Scientists from the United States Geological Survey (USGS) have detected a mysterious leak beneath the ocean floor near Mount St. Helens, and their discovery is raising alarms across the scientific community.
For decades, Mount St. Helens has been a symbol of both beauty and destruction — a majestic volcano that slumbers in the shadows of Washington State, holding memories of one of the most catastrophic eruptions in U.S. history.

But the latest findings from deep beneath the Pacific Ocean suggest something new, something far more disturbing, is brewing below the surface.
