S1, E5: Nicaragua is home to Masaya, a huge volcano that has been active for over 30,000 years. During its long life it has caused some of the largest eruptions in history. The surrounding landscape has been created from lava, ash, and gas, while at its center lies a desolate, empty land. Each time the Masaya volcano destroys everything around it, life returns, reemerging from the ash at its feet.
