With Earth-shaking, lava-spewing force that transcends national borders, politics and economies, our planet has the awesome – and terrifying – power to stop people in their tracks. Just in the first few months of 2010 alone, the sheer might of Mother Nature has dominated international headlines, from the devastating earthquake in Concepción, Chile; to the volcanic eruption in Iceland that paralyzed global travel and trade just weeks ago. With two new in-the-moment specials, Discovery Channel takes a closer look at the cause and impact of two of these recent disasters with the back-to-back presentations of ICELAND VOLCANO ERUPTION and MONSTER QUAKE: WILL WE SURVIVE? on Thursday, May 27 at 8 and 9 p.m. ET/9 and 10 p.m. PT.
