Headline: Stunning Footage Shows Hawaii's Kilauea Volcano Erupting
Caption: The Kilauea volcano in Hawaii began erupting on 10 September 2023 - spewing lava out from its summit. This footage from the US Geological Survey shows how the event unfolded over several hours as the eruption began with spurts of molten rock being thrust into the air, and continued with lava flows that illuminated the night. The eruption took place within Halema uma u crater and on the down-dropped block to the east in Kilauea’s?summit caldera, within Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. The eruption "does not pose a lava threat to communities" on Hawaii’s main island but volcanic particles and gases may create breathing problems for people who go to see the eruption close up. The volcano is one of the most active on Earth and also erupted in January.
