Why scientists are drilling into magma

Iceland is one of the most volcanic places on earth. The Krafla volcano has erupted 30 times in the past 1,000 years. Now a team of scientists at the ambitious Krafla Magma Testbed (KMT) project are drilling into the magma to explore the potential of harnessing geothermal energy by tapping into the extremely hot source of volcano power.

BBC 100 Women speaks to geologist Amel Barich to find out more about the work at KMT.
