Lava Blasts into Pacific Ocean #1 Moonlight illuminates this stunning phenomenon: massive explosions take place at the base of the plume where molten lava is pumping into the ocean on the Island of Hawaii. The plume is comprised of steam, sulfur dioxide, hydrachloric acid, glass particles, ash, rock, and black sand. As the molten lava pours out of the lava tubes that carried it from magma chambers under the flanks of Mauna Loa’s Kilauea volcano above, it instantly explodes into black sand and rock fragments. Many of these molten chunks will continue floating and streaming on the ocean. This is the most ocean entry lava that has been seen here in local memory. Island of Hawaii
Molten Lava and Electric Bolt Blasts Inside moonlit Lava Plume In a stunning display of awesome power, a massive volume of molten lava pours into the Pacific Ocean and instantly explodes resulting in tremendous heat, steam, sulfur gas, glass particles, rock, black sand and rarely, a lightning bolt within the raging plume - seen as the small violet color above the sparks in this photo.
