Molten lava continues to pour into the Pacific Ocean from an active volcano in Hawaii.
A helicopter crew flying over the Hawai'i Kilauea Volcano on the island of Hawai'i captured this video. This was as close as the helicopter could fly safely, although a boat is shown getting surprisingly close.
A stream of lava about five feet wide poured down the side of a cliff. The U.S Geological Survey reports that seismic activity is low, but gas emissions were up in the area.
Kilauea is a shield volcano (low profile and built almost entirely of fluid lava flows). It's the most active of five volcanoes that form the island of Hawai'i.
