Close your eyes. Listen. Imagine lava seeping from the Earth, flowing and melting rock in its path. Thats what inspired musician and composer Ben Cosgroves new instrumental, Volcano. As an Artist-in-Residence, Cosgrove accompanied NASAs Geophysical Exploration of the Dynamics and Evolution of the Solar System (GEODES) team to Lava Beds National Monument, where he participated in planetary science research to develop methods and tools to explore the surface of the Moon.

In this music video, youll see members of the GEODES team operating instruments including ground-penetrating radar, seismometers, magnetometers, drones, and gravitometers in lunar-like landscapes in Hawaii, California, and Arizona. When combined, these instruments provide an overall picture of the surface structure and whats below. So sit back, tune in, and let the music transport you from lava beds on the surface of the Earth and the Moon, to the volcanic depths of the solar system, and beyond.
