VIDEO Kilauea Volcano Erupts in Hawaii 2011

As one of the volcanoes in the world's most active, Kilauea eruption is not surprising. But the lava is always amazing to watch.

Scientists at the Hawaiian Volcano Observatory said the floor of Kilauea down at least 377 meters Saturday afternoon, cracking open a crack in the volcano and kicking from the lava flow. At the peak of the event, the lava shooting more than 80 feet into the air.

Kilauea, located on the big island of Hawaii, is a shield volcano, so it does not have a large cone, but a broad-based coverage. The volcano has been in a constant state of eruption since 1983, but the lava spilled come infrequently, only every few years.

When it erupted in a remote area along the ridge east of the volcano. About 150 small earthquakes have been recorded in Kilauea. While no homes or people who are threatened, volcanologists (probably the coolest title ever) has closed the area to visitors.

The Kilauea volcano, one of five volcanoes that form the Big Island of Hawaii, has erupted putting on a spectacular display of flowing molten rock.

    Officials have closed large parts of the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, which is visited by millions of tourists every year, until further notice.

    Kilauea is one of the most active volcanoes on the planet and has been continuously erupting since 1983, making it the longest rift-zone eruption of the last 200 years.

    In January it destroyed several houses in the Kalapana area.
