The Ring of Fire is part of the Emmy Award winning series "How the Earth Was Made".  The Ring of Fire  follows top US geologists to the volcanoes that line the pacific rim, discovering evidence that helps to explain the creation of the earth as we know it today.  Using every method of transport conceivable, from float planes to helicopters and boats, the scientists access some of the remotest locations on the planet.  Often the journey is as interesting as the story.
