Kilauea Volcano Erupts Again, Producing Lava Streams

Kilauea Volcano Erupts Again, Producing Lava Streams

Kilauea volcano in Hawaii erupted again, the 32nd time since late 2024.

Lava shot out of different vents in the crater.

The eruption produced enough lava to fill five Olympic-sized swimming pools every minute.

This eruption also released a lot of a toxic gas called sulfur dioxide which can be harmful to breathe.

This volcano is one of the most active ones in the world and sometimes produces 'volcano tornadoes'.

The lava flowed over the crater floor.
