This stunning footage shows a Hawaiian volcano spewing lava. The Kilauea Volcano located on Hawaii’s largest island, Hawaii, is the world’s most active. Kilauea has been erupting since Dec. 2024, and entered its 36th episode on Nov. 9, spewing fountains up to 1,000-1,100 feet, and lasting for over five hours. Eruption episodes include distinct and continuous periods of activity that occur within a longer-term cycle. The lava is currently contained within the volcano’s summit crater and is not th

Lava spewed from Hawaii's Kilauea volcano on Saturday, December 6, footage from the United States Geological Survey (USGS) captured.

Low to moderate tremors were also recorded during the eruption. Located in a closed area of Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, Kilauea is one of the world's most active volcanoes a

Last weekend's spectacular 41st eruption of the Kilauea Volcano here on the Big Island (pictured in this amazing USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory time lapse video) occurred in a light wind regime which allowed "tephra"----defined as "any fragmental material, regardless of size or composition, that is blasted into the air by an explosive volcanic eruption"--- to rain down, not only within Volcanoes National Park, but also on surrounding communities. This was unusual because prevailing winds here

The folks at the USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory (HVO) do such an awesome job covering the volcanoes of our 50th State. I've often said they provide what amounts to a veritable college level course in volcanology through their beautifully done reports and updates. The following is a collection of videos of the ongoing Kilauea eruption which is occurring deep in the volcano's "caldera" (see the definition of a "caldera" below). That the eruption is taking place in the "caldera" is why the molte
