Description: Utilizes animation and live photography to explain the origin of New Zealand's main volcanic belt and the use of this subterranean power. Points out that geothermal steam is used by homeowners in the area to heat greenhouses and for cooking, while the government has experimented and developed a large power project using the steam. Describes how deep bores were drilled at Wairakei and the power harnessed success fully, although 'ROGUE' bores occasionally burst out of control.
