Molten pahoehoe lava spilling from a lava tube
Pahoehoe lava. Molten pahoehoe lava flowing from a lava tube (upper right). Pahoehoe is a thick lava which may flow at speeds of up to 50 kilometres per hour. Lava tubes are formed when the surface of a river of molten lava cools and solidifies, but the interior remains hot and liquid. Pahoehoe lava is a type of basic lava with a low silica content, giving it a low melting point. This means the lava can travel great distances from the crater or vent from which it issued.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing sight of molten pahoehoe lava gracefully spilling from a lava tube. The upper right corner reveals a breathtaking flow of this thick, low silica content lava, which can reach astonishing speeds of up to 50 kilometers per hour. Lava tubes are formed when the surface layer of a scorching river of molten lava cools and solidifies, while the interior remains hot and liquid. This natural phenomenon allows for an awe-inspiring display as the vibrant pahoehoe lava cascades through these tunnels. Photographed at Kilauea volcano on Big Island in Hawaii, USA, this image captures the raw power and beauty of nature's forces at work. The intense heat radiating from within creates an otherworldly glow that illuminates its surroundings with an ethereal light. Pahoehoe lava's low melting point enables it to travel vast distances from its volcanic source, leaving behind trails that bear witness to its fiery journey. This photograph serves as a testament to both the destructive potential and sheer magnificence found within Earth's geological wonders. Science Photo Library has expertly captured this extraordinary moment in time, allowing us to marvel at one of nature's most captivating spectacles – reminding us just how small we are in comparison to our planet's immense power.
