"As the rocks cool on creating a mosaic of black and red a team of scientists brave the high temperatures in their search for answers to the secrets of what happens below the surface of the Earth.

The molten stone forms the world’s largest lava lake on the Nyiragongo volcano in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

These incredible images were taken by a daredevil photographer who joined the research team on their journey to Congo and Italy and Mount Etna enduring temperatures of over 1100 degrees Celsius (2000 degrees Fahrenheit)."

 I doubt this is real. red glowing stone means temperatures over 500°C. No footwear will last long enough to make one step.

Solid: Despite the extreme heat a member of the scientific expedition is brave enough to walk on Nyiragongos cooled lava floor
