The eruption of the Krakatau on a small island
located in the middle of the Sunda Strait in
August 1883 was, in many aspects, the first
global catastrophe.
The news about the eruption, its following
tsunami and the more than 36,000 victims
travelled fast thanks to the recently installed
worldwide telegraphic network.The final explosion of Krakatau produced the
loudest sound ever recorded in modern history,
heard on over 10% of Earth’s area. Reports of a
distant cannonade or what seemed to be
gunfire were reported from Australia and the
island of Mauritius, more than 4,650km distant
from the erupting volcano.
Krakatau was the first scientifically well
recorded and studied eruption of a volcano,
from the very beginning to its disastrous
ending.
