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.
