Hawaii’s mighty Kilauea volcano has erupted once again — and it's putting on a fiery show! Lava blasted 330 feet into the sky from its summit crater, marking the 32nd eruption episode since December 2024. This dramatic event started from the north vent inside Halemaʻumaʻu crater, and by morning, three separate vents were launching molten rock high into the air.

What's fueling these explosive displays? Magma is rushing from deep underground, building pressure just like a shaken champagne bottle — until it bursts through narrow vents in spectacular fountains.

Kilauea is no stranger to long eruptions. In 1983, it erupted for 35 straight years. Could history repeat itself? Scientists are watching closely, but the volcano’s next move remains unpredictable.

Witness the raw power of Earth’s inner forces as Kilauea continues to remind us — Hawaii sits on one of the planet’s most active volcanic zones :volcano::fire:

00:00Lava shooting 330 feet into the sky?
00:02Hawaii's Kilauea volcano is erupting again, and it's far from over.
00:07This is the 32nd lava eruption since December 2024.
00:11Kilauea's north vent inside Halema'umao crater blasted awake just after midnight.
00:16By morning, three vents were spraying fiery fountains of molten rock.
00:20So what's causing the chaos?
00:22Magma is surging up from deep underground.
00:25Think of it like shaking a champagne bottle.
00:27Pressure builds until it explodes through narrow vents.
00:30Some past eruptions even launched lava over 1,000 feet into the air.
00:35And Kilauea's done this before, in 1959, 1969, and again in 1983.
00:41That 1983 eruption lasted 35 years.
00:44Could this one be the same?
00:45Nobody knows.
00:47Sensors can predict activity a few days ahead.
00:49But how long this eruption lasts is still a mystery.
00:52One thing's for sure, the lava is flowing, and Kilauea isn't done yet.
00:57The Earth is very much alive in Hawaii.
