The Grand Prismatic Spring is the America's largest hot spring and third largest in the world.The spring is about 250 by 300 feet in size and 160 feet deep.In the center of the pool the water temperature is 188 degree farahnite.The yellow,orange and red pigments are produced by the bacteria.NASA scientists study Yellowstone’s hot springs because they may be similar to the environments where life first evolved on Earth.

The Blue Lagoon geothermal spa is one of the largest attraction in Iceland.The steamy waters are part of a lava formation and a large swimming pool is heated with the run-off water from a nearby geothermal power plant. The Blue Lagoon geothermal seawater is a part of an ecocycle where nature and science work in harmony.The seawater originates 2000 meter and 6562 ft beneath the ground where it is heated by earth’s natural forces.

                 Deildartunguhver

 

This hotspring in Reykholtsdalur, Iceland, is characterized by a very high flow rate for a hot spring (180 liters/second) and water emerges at 97 °C, the highest flow hot spring in Europe. Some of the water is used for heating, being piped 34 kilometers to Borgarnes and 64 kilometers to Akranes.
                                                               
           Mammoth Hot Springs

 

the Mammoth Hot Springs is the largest known carbonate-depositing spring in the world in Yellowstone. The most famous feature at the springs is the Minerva Terrace — a series of travertine terraces which have been created over thousands of years as hot water from the spring cooled and deposited calcium carbonate. The Mammoth Terraces are constantly changing shape and color.
