Volcanoes are exploding everywhere, even deep in our Solar System: A small lava island formed off Kapoho, Hawaii. The Piton de la Fournaise volcano on La Reunion Inland stared erupting again on July 13, 2018. The Öræfajökull volcano in Iceland is inflating and preparing for a next major eruption. Continuous intense explosions of Anak Krakatau in Indonesia are heard over 42 kms around. A new volcano has been discovered on Io, one of Jupiter’s moon. And some other pictures and videos from around the world.
New lava island is forming in Hawaii
A tiny new island of lava has formed on the northernmost part of the ocean entry off Kapoho, scientists say, as Fissure 8 continues to be the primary erupting vent on Kīlauea’s lower East Rift Zone.
During this morning’s overflight, a USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory field crew “noticed the island was oozing lava similar to the lava oozing from the broad flow front along the coastline.”
