Actually, Tom.., again? You know, I'd say go sit in a corner with a dunce cap on but I don't think it would work… you’re too dense.
Actualize*.. crystalize.. same same… petrology Tom. Have you ever heard of it?
But yeah, Maggie spent a lot of time measuring and quantifying the evolving gas, bubble, structures.. that is published in her Vesiculation of basaltic magma during eruption and a lot of people cheered her on, but really it's all the petrologists who have through the years quantify the growing crystals.. rocks, not gas bro.
Lava, like the glass used in astronomy's large mirrors, is a crystalline structure. The crystals grow in the lava, in the heat of the moment, as the lava expands in its sudden rush to.. it takes time.. but unlike the long annealing process of a large mirror it happens quickly. You'd be amazed.. maybe read through some of what you find with a search for petrology of erupting lava at Kilauea.
Maybe next time Tommy someone will let you play with one of the hats.. I can’t guarantee it’ll work.. but you can try.
*BTW I wrote actualize, instead of crystalize, for you specifically Tom. Just to see what you would do.. how you would react.. and hey, you’re cute but dude why they let you call yourself a scientist is beyond me.
