Calderas often form during the largest explosive or effusive eruptions. So, what is Earth's largest caldera? The answer is now Yellowstone, Taupo, or even Toba. Rather, a little known 93 mile or 150 kilometer wide caldera exists off the eastern coast of the Philippines; the Apolaki Caldera. Luckily, the Apolaki caldera is long extinct and will never erupt again. #volcano #philippines #geology #caldera #shorts #short
