KILAUEA SATURDAY VOLCANO UPDATE: The 19th eruption of the Kilauea volcano here in Hawaii has paused. It ended yesterday after sending molten lava spatters as much as 330 feet into the air. Scientists at the Hawaiian Volcano Observatory report the earth's surface in "inflating" again near the vents from which recent eruptions have emerged. If this continues, HVO scientist estimate yet another eruption is likely in the next 3 to 7 days. You can read the latest USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory KIL

A remote camera captured the moment an erupting volcano in Hawaii knocked it out while recording on Saturday (December 6). Lava spewed from Hawaii's Kilauea volcano on Saturday, footage from the United States Geological Survey (USGS) captured. The USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory said sustained lava fountains of approximately 50-100 feet (15-30 meters) in height were erupting from the north vent and that the heights of the lava fountains were rapidly increasing. The eruptions were confined to t

Molten lava poured dramatically from the crater of Hawaii’s Kilauea volcano on Friday (November 7), as seen in live footage provided by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). The USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory said on Thursday (November 6) that Kilauea was likely to enter a “high fountaining phase” soon, with models indicating the activity could begin anytime between Friday and Tuesday (November 11), according to ABC News. Kilauea, described by scientists as “one of the world’s most active volcan

Lava tubes form as the surface of an active lava flow cools and slowly roofs over. The lava breakouts from Puʻu ʻŌʻō on May 24 formed flows that are growing to both the north and east. Scientists from the Hawaiian Volcano Observatory went out into the field last week to investigate and found a skylight in a newly formed lava tube. This video shows the skylight, which is a window in the roof of a lava tube, and an insulated lava stream that is feeding breakout flows downslope. The skylight openin

Fissure fountains feed lava flows, as shown in this overflight video of the Fissure 20 complex on May 21, 2018, around 7:20 AM, HST. The video concludes with a view of the bifurcating lava channels that merge closer to the coast (and split again before ocean entry). The white laze plume is the site of ocean entry.
