Recent data suggests the flames of Turkmenistan's famous 'Gates of Hell' crater are starting to go out. 🔥#gatesofhell #turkmenistan #fire 

The famous Darvaza gas crater, often called the "gates of hell" in Turkmenistan's Karakum Desert, has been burning for over 50 years. Recent analysis shows a significant drop in its heat intensity, raising questions about the fate of this iconic site. This decrease in combustion could mean more dangerous methane is escaping into the atmosphere. 🔥
