Description
Video from Hawaii shows the Kilauea Volcano apparently shooting lava into the air early Wednesday morning.
Kilauea, one of the world's most active volcanoes, spewed lava into the air on Monday and Tuesday as well.
The eruption of Kilauea volcano on Hawaii's Big Island has stayed within the mountain's summit caldera inside Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. No homes were threatened.
Molten rock began shooting from the volcano before dawn on Monday when fissures opened in the caldera floor and propelled lava 2,95 feet (90 meters) into the air. The red liquid formed tall fountains and then spread across 650 acres (263 hectares).
The Hawaiian Volcano Observatory estimated the lava was about 1 yard (1 meter) thick.
Scientists expect activity to fluctuate in the coming days. The lava paused Monday afternoon but fountains reemerged Tuesday morning.
