A Google-a-Day Puzzle for Jan. 30

Geek Culture

Our good friends at Google run a daily puzzle challenge and asked us to help get them out to the geeky masses. Each day’s puzzle will task your googling skills a little more, leading you to Google mastery. Each morning at 12:01 a.m. Eastern time you’ll see a new puzzle, and the previous day’s answer (in invisitext) posted here.

.answer {color:#fff;}
.answer:hover {color:#333;}

SPOILER WARNING:
We leave the comments on so people can work together to find the answer. As such, if you want to figure it out all by yourself, DON’T READ THE COMMENTS!

Also, with the knowledge that because others may publish their answers before you do, if you want to be able to search for information without accidentally seeing the answer somewhere, you can use the Google-a-Day site’s search tool, which will automatically filter out published answers, to give you a spoiler-free experience.

And now, without further ado, we give you…

TODAY’S PUZZLE:

What is an English match for a German Ritter or French chevalier?

YESTERDAY’S ANSWER (mouseover to see):

Search [Crater Rim Drive, Pahoa] and zoom a bit to find that you’re circling the summit caldera of Kilauea volcano in Volcanoes National Park in Hawaii. Search [Volcanoes National Park] and read to find that Kilauea is considered the most active, but that you also see Mauna Loa, the most massive volcano on earth at 13,677 feet.
