Halemaʻumaʻu eruption sampling - June 7, 2023

During the morning of June 7, Hawaiian Volcano Observatory geologists scouted the perimeter of Halemaʻumaʻu crater floor for a location to sample lava erupted by new vents that opened that morning. Initial lava flows inundated the crater floor and although the lava flows on the perimeter were solid by the time geologists arrived, they were still hot to touch. Access to this hazardous area is by permission from, and in coordination with, Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park. The eruption is occurring within Halemaʻumaʻu, a location that is significant to Native Hawaiian communities as it is the home of the deity Pele. USGS video by K. Mulliken.
