On August 26, the sun rose again and only a column of smoke emanated from Vesuvius, but Pompeii was completely blackened and destroyed. The site was lost from memory for more than 1,500 years, until the first archaeological excavations began in 1748 by the Zaragoza-born Spanish engineer Roque Joaquín de Alcubierre]]> 2021-06-03 17:02:46 UTC https://padlet.com/jelleseys/Bookmarks/wish/1583131704 https://padlet.com/jelleseys/Bookmarks/wish/1583145429 A massive ash cloud was expelled up to 20km high, dominating the sky and blocking out the sun. The whole sky turned dark as the cloud was carried south east and Pompeii was plunged into darkness.]]> 2021-06-03 17:07:11 UTC https://padlet.com/jelleseys/Bookmarks/wish/1583145429 https://padlet.com/jelleseys/Bookmarks/wish/1583148141 2021-06-03 17:08:00 UTC https://padlet.com/jelleseys/Bookmarks/wish/1583148141 https://padlet.com/jelleseys/Bookmarks/wish/1585428507 The volcanic cloud reached its peak at the estimated height of over 30km in the air. This cloud began to plummet back down to earth.

A pyroclastic surge of extremely hot gas, rocks and volcanic material flowed with huge force and speed down the north-west side of the volcano into herculaneum. Here, it killed many people.

It is thought that the pyroclastic surge travelled at an astonishing 350km per hour.]]> 2021-06-04 14:48:54 UTC https://padlet.com/jelleseys/Bookmarks/wish/1585428507 https://padlet.com/jelleseys/Bookmarks/wish/1585784810 The eruption cloud collapsed once again.

Mount Vesuvius released a second pyroclastic surge, closely followed by a third surge, wich was even stronger than the ladt.

The surge was growing ever closer to Pompeii.]]> 2021-06-04 16:57:47 UTC https://padlet.com/jelleseys/Bookmarks/wish/1585784810 https://padlet.com/jelleseys/Bookmarks/wish/1588287115 25 th August
