PANAREA ISLAND (SICILY), MEDITERRANEAN SEA – SEPTEMBER 2018 : Observation of the basaltic organs of the Panarea volcanic island on September 8, 2018, in the Aeolian islands archipelago, Mediterranean Sea. Basaltic organs, or basaltic columns, are volcanic formations composed of prisms, often divided by transverse fractures. They developed as a result of the shrinkage of the lava flows of volcanic veins during cooling. (Photo by Alexis Rosenfeld/Getty Images)
