What made the Krakatau 1883 eruption so incredibly loud and violent?

Originally Verbeek thought that Krakatoa was so fierce because sea water flooded into the volcano, reacting with molten lava; the build-up of pressure from the resulting steam would have led to an enormous blast. His model left a crater and landslide scar very like the remains of Krakatoa.

Are high frequency sounds dangerous?

High frequency sound causes two types of health effects: on the one hand objective health effects such as hearing loss (in case of protracted exposure) and on the other hand subjective effects which may already occur after a few minutes: headache, tinnitus, fatigue, dizziness and nausea.

How loud was Krakatoa 1883?

172 decibels

How does star stacking work to reduce noise?

You can either use a star tracker with very long shutter speeds to capture a lot of light and thus a high signal to noise ratio, or you can use star stacking, a method of capturing multiple photos with shorter shutter speeds that are then aligned and averaged in software to reduce noise.
