Mount Pelée is an active volcano on the island of Martinique in the Caribbean that is known for its steep, cone-shaped structure typical of stratovolcanoes. It matters historically because of its catastrophic 1902 eruption, which was one of the deadliest volcanic events on record and helped scientists understand how certain types of volcanic eruptions work.
