The Kilauea volcano in the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park has erupted for the seventh time since December last year, spewing lava from the Halemaʻumaʻu pit crater. Spectacular timelapse footage from January 27 captured the lava flows spreading like a river delta on the crater floor.

The Kilauea volcano at Hawaii Volcanoes National Park is spewing lava once again, the seventh recorded episode in recent weeks.

The world’s most active volcano is at it again after Hawaii’s Kilauea began its seventh episode of its ongoing eruption, with video showing lava shooting more than 100 feet into the air.

The Hawaii Volcanoes National Park is home to the summits of two of the world’s most active volcanoes: Kilauea and Mauna Loa.

The USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory has a YouTube live feed of the eruption taken from a safe distance that shows the full lava flow into the caldera, which at night (as it is as of the time of this article being published due to Hawaii's time difference) illuminates brilliantly.

The Hawaiian Volcano Observatory reported that fountains on the north side of the crater are now reaching heights of 100 to 120 feet (30 to 40 metres) and feeding multiple streams of lava. Additionally, a smaller fountain is visible on the south side, accompanied by a small emerging lava flow.

Vog forms when sulfur dioxide (SO₂) and other volcanic gases react chemically with atmospheric moisture, oxygen, sunlight, and dust.

The latest eruption of Kilauea, one of the world’s most active volcanoes, is the fourth such episode that began on December 23.

One of the world’s most active volcanoes, located in Kilauea, Hawaii, erupted for the seventh time since December on Monday evening, the U.S. Geological Survey said.
