Mount Kilauea in Hawaii erupts. Scientists continue to monitor the increased activity of Mount Kilauea on the Big Island, Hawaiian Islands. Sunday, March 6, 2011, Kilauea volcano erupted and spewed material as high as 56 feet into the air.
The eruption did not cause damage to buildings in the national park on the mountain. "Not hurting people who camp out here,"said a national park rangers yesterday. He warned visitors to stay to keep a distance from the volcano.
Over the past 28 years, Kilauea continues to move with out hot lava. Janet Babb, a geologist from the U.S. Geological Survey, said the activity on Sunday and then out of the ordinary. "There's a new episode in the eruption and will continue."
Indeed, one day earlier, one of the volcanic crater walls as high as 370 meters named Pu'u 'O'o collapsed. This event is followed 150 times smaller earthquake tremors just around the mountain.
Separately, on the east side of the mountain cracks occurred along the 535 yards in the open field. Geological Survey officials said that Napau, another crater, also began to erupt.
Park managers were immediately closed the road to the camp in the crater Napau. "To be safe, visitors can see the eruption from a distance of 1.5 miles," said Mardie Lane, from the Hawaiian Volcano Observatory Park Ranger.
