This text is a transcript of a video discussing the history and recent activity of the Krakatoa volcano, specifically Anak Krakatoa, which is referred to as the son of Krakatoa. It mentions various eruptions, including the famous 1883 explosion and a more recent one in December 2018, as well as the volcano's continuous activity since then. The text also explains terms related to volcanic activity, such as "explosive eruption" and "strombolian activity," and highlights the region's tectonic plate dynamics, contributing to volcanic activity in the area.
