Kilauea volcano has been erupting simultaneously in two places for over a year, something that’s unprecedented in 200 years of its recorded history.  The first of these eruptions has been spilling lava across the southern part of the Big Island since 1983.

Kilauea is also erupting from Halemaumau crater at the summit. That’s where a large explosion opened a vent in March 2008.

You can watch the summit eruption from a lookout point inside Hawaii Volcanoes National Park.
