HONOLULU — One of the world's most active volcanoes began shooting lava into the air once again this week on the Big Island of Hawaii.
Kilauea volcano has been erupting on and off for nearly two months since it burst to life last Dec. 23. The spectacular site takes place at the volcano's summit crater inside Hawaii Volcanoes National Park.
The latest release of molten rock began Tuesday morning, with lava flowing onto the floor of Halemaumau Crater. A half-hour later, a vent shot lava about 330 feet high.
It is the ninth episode of eruptive activity since Dec. 23, the Hawaiian Volcano Observatory said. Earlier episodes have lasted 13 hours to eight days, with pauses in between.
People have been flocking to overlook sites inside the national park for views of the eruption.
Kilauea is about 200 miles southeast of Honolulu.
No residential areas have been threatened by lava.
