Launching a new product or service isnât what is used to be. In the good old days, you could hire a PR agency to craft a press release and set up a press tour.
But if you touch lava at all you will be very badly burnt. Yes you will die if you are exposed to it for any amount of time.
With large bodies of water (oceans), the water flashes to steam while the lava cools and hardens (pillow basalts). Also remember, that lava does already contain low amounts of water. while the nice and comfortable Lava or Magma touches water, the water is boiled into steam. This steam rises and could be seen as an eruption of air out of the sea. because of the fact the Magma cools, it hardens forming new floor.
