Is it true that the magma below the Yellowstone Caldera is moving? If so, why?

Is Yellowstone likely to erupt within the next 1-10 or 20-50 years?

Also, since Yellowstone is considered a supervalcano, what impact will its explosion have on the United States and North America? I understand that it will have global effects also, but I'm interested in the direct impact on the US.

Thanks in advance to all serious responses.

(And please cross your fingers for my upcoming trip.)

Whenever we send things into space, very little of that stuff comes back, would the gradual removal of weight start affecting earths orbit over time, and what would happen?

I'm a little confused. How can there be an end in space if we haven't discovered it yet. What is really out there? These questions run through my mind all day. How will we ever know what's out there if we can't reach it? Are they people out there like me who are completely lost when it comes to this mysterious world? or am I out here alone?

Ice maelting in a glass full of water doesn't raise the water level, how can the melting of polar caps raise it 20 feet? Doesn't displacement play a big factor here?

How could piling up "stores or CO2 or raw carbon underground be a good thing? How could pumping CO2 to the lower depth of the oceans not destroy or seriously impact the O2 balance of the oceans. Is it logical to expect that massively increasing the amount of phyto plankton woud not be a disater?

How is carbon sequestration not idiotic science?

Why does the wind blow? What forces cause the air particles to move? Has it to do with gravity or the spin of the planet or something?
