- S45E10Volatile Earth: Volcano on FireClimb with volcano experts to the summit of Nyiragongo, a highly active volcano in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and one of the world's least studied. Twice in recent memory it has erupted, devastating Goma, a neighboring city of 1 million people. To investigate when it might erupt next, volcanologists descend into its crater toward its bubbling and seething lava lake to deploy sensors and monitor the volcano's activity.
- S45E11Volatile Earth: Volcano on the BrinkJoin a team of volcanologists as they explore one of the world's most active and mysterious volcanoes in central Africa: the sleeping giant Nyamuragira. Decades of civil strife have prevented scientists from investigating the volcano, but a brief pause allows an international team of experts to fly by helicopter to the summit to investigate. Discover the region's other hidden, life-threatening volcanic dangers and probe whether magma pressure is building up to threaten another one of its frequent eruptions.
