Hawaii's Kilauea volcano is erupting with jaw-dropping power — launching lava fountains up to 1,500 feet high! In its 36th episode since December 2024, the volcano delivered a five-hour spectacle of continuous lava fountaining, covering 80% of the Halemaʻumaʻu crater floor.

This is one of the most intense eruption series seen since the legendary Puʻuʻōʻō eruptions of the 1980s.
From fiery lava jets to volcanic glass known as Pele’s Hair drifting miles away, Kilauea is both mesmerizing and dangerous.
