The brief behind this video

The internet says Turkmenistan's Door to Hell has burned since 1971. But a new Landsat analysis found no active flaring on September 20, 1987 - and clear fire by February 27, 1988. That puts ignition between those dates, not in 1971. The crater itself was already visible in satellite images by 1972, but its exact formation year is still uncertain. Researchers also detected 44 methane plumes from 2020 to 2025, even while the flames weakened.
