Aerial view of Pu u O o vent of Kilauea volcano
Pu u O o vent. Aerial view of the Pu u O o vent on the Kilauea volcano in Hawaii, USA. Kilauea is one of the worlds most active volcanoes. The tracks of countless lava flows can be seen leading away from the steaming vent here. The Hawaiian islands are entirely made of volcanic rock, and continuously erupting volcanoes such as Kilauea mean that the islands are still increasing in size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial view of the Pu u O o vent on Kilauea volcano in Hawaii showcases the raw power and beauty of one of the world's most active volcanoes. The image captures a mesmerizing scene, with steaming vents and a vast expanse of lava flows stretching outwards like intricate tracks. Kilauea, known for its continuous eruptions, plays a significant role in shaping the Hawaiian islands. This print serves as a reminder that these islands are entirely formed by volcanic rock and are still expanding due to ongoing volcanic activity. The sheer magnitude of this geological wonder is awe-inspiring. It offers us a glimpse into nature's relentless force at work, as molten lava surges through underground channels before erupting from this particular vent. The steam rising from the vent adds an ethereal quality to the scene, creating an otherworldly atmosphere. As we gaze upon this photograph, we can't help but marvel at Earth's dynamic processes and our planet's ability to constantly transform itself. It serves as a testament to both the fragility and resilience of life on Earth. Science Photo Library has beautifully captured this momentous sight, allowing us to appreciate the magnificence of Kilauea volcano from above.
