First and foremost, are the servers and monument to Eve Online players safe? If not, we can always transfer to the secondary Astrahaus. Secondly, are the local residents safe? Eve Online is brutal. Iceland consents to sudden and uncontrollable volcanic eruptions upon dock. It’s in the EULA, so there is no need to fill out an ‘island reimbursement’ ticket. Don’t float an island you can’t afford to lose.

We’re all safe! Despite the eruption being visible from Reykjavik (in fact, some can even see the fires from their kitchen windows and yards) it’s far enough away that the city and its infrastructure are totally fine.

So, no chance of a volcanic Alpha strike taking a chunk out of Iceland then? Good to hear. ---

Scary. I prefer hurricanes and floods over volcanoes any day. Hmmm. Can we cook steaks over a volcano? ---

There was another volcanic eruption in Iceland just the other day. > **[Volcano on Iceland's Reykjanes Peninsula erupts for the 7th time in a year](https://apnews.com/article/iceland-volcano-rekjanes-peninsula-08c7742f017556b03818f35cb50a6e1c)** > > Iceland's seismic monitors say the eruption created a fissure around 3 kilometers, but they estimated the eruption was considerably smaller than the previous eruption in August. I wonder how stressful it is to live on an island where volcanoes erupt all the time. ---
