Kilauea Eruption Update: Lava Lake Rising Again (Dec. 31, 2020)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 30 дек 2020
- The lava lake level has been rising slowly again since December 27th, and recently reached a new peak elevation at 2,300 feet above sea level, with a depth of 603 feet.
A synthesized voice was utilized in the narration for this story. Video and photos are from the USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory, NPS.
That opening shot is just stunning,nature just has a way with what we call art.... that just leaves me breathless.
God is Creator of everything good and beautiful.
Lots of great screenshots too.
I want to put that design on my living room table
@@Qodesheem I cant see him help😊
The shadow of the chopper really puts it in perspective.
Exactly what I was thinking. Really
I'm not sure I would have seen it without your comment. It really is tiny. Thanks for letting me know about it.
Also notice where the road was.
My wife and I took a helicopter flight over this in January and it is massive in person. It was just a steaming hole then. No lava but it’s very large and truly awesome
Shadows are not a good measure, they are distorted by the distance and angle to the sun.

I was going to say it looked like Mordor!!

Way best narrator yet brah.
Completely synthesized. It says in the description
His voice is easy on the ears
🔥
Not bad, for a Bot.🤖🤣
Happy New Year's everyone. Have enjoyed all the imaging and report's great job.
@@ihatepokemonthings If they don't change their ways, they could be heading for a worse "Lake of Fire"
@@ihatepokemonthings Trump lost get over it.
Description noted.
That's a pretty good synthesised voice. Congratulations to whoever chose to use it!
That is so amazing. It's beautiful in the destructive yet inspiring way. Seeing the 4th of Mother Nature and the force that drives it you can't even begin to imagine it. Whoever did this video did a great job thank you
It looks kind of peaceful. As long as it stays in the Caldera. Once it flows out things get interesting. I've been to Oahu many years ago, I'd love to go to the Big Island and see this volcano. Sadly that'll have to wait another year or so.
That was a synthesized voice? That's just as interesting to me as the volcano!
Dayum!! Once I read the description saying that this is a synthesized voice I could hear it. But it's the best synth voice I've ever heard. Either that or the description is wrong. Still, better narration than usual.
Wow I was there 3 years ago, I have been watching since. These are the best New Year's lights you could ever see. It is incredibly raw, beautiful and real. Happy New Year to all...
HOW IS THIS VOICE SYNTHESIZED?!
Thanks for the update!
Great video!
Have a Happy New Year!
Thank you for the most interesting information..wow magnificent shots.. Happy New Year to you all!!!! You all have done a tremendous job all year round...can’t Thank You Enough. You all stay safe as well.
I'm impressed that's a synthesized voice , if my assumption of it being computer generated. It's cadence reminds me of the host of ripley's believe it or not.
@@Longing4theWoods it sounds like it is but it says it’s a synthesized voice in the description!
it's the best one i've heard yet. very natural sounding.
Sounds like real Voice with Little speed
@@Longing4theWoods, well think about this, the voice of “Siri” was from a real person. She sat in front of a microphone saying many many words for many many hours. Maybe this was done in a similar fashion, but the programming is far more sophisticated.
if it's a synthesized voice. how can I get more info about it? it's sound so much like @hanumanwelch's voice.
How do I go about purchasing the land that makes up the lava island? I need to build Gannons castle
Depends on who owns it (federal, state, or private). Figure that part out and just throw wads of cash at whoever holds the deed. Lol 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@Karen-pk3uv Well it is in Volcanoes NATIONAL park... so the who part is kind knows.
smart ass
So all this is funny for you? You see all that is happening through all nations. Do you hear God speak to you? Do you know that this is a temporary home. Do you think their is more than your existence. Do you think you got here on your own,? I’m about done, we all are sinners, but believe in Jesus and the grace of the Father who gave us His only begotten Son for the perfect sacrifice to die for our sins. If not you will be ashamed at the end, because God loves you, but you won’t let Him in, you will go to hell.

Deep breaths homie, and stay off the bath salts.
Well then it's probably time to invest heavily in pop corn agriculture.
When volcanoes erupt and the lava starts flowing high, it is very beautiful to watch! It might be destructive but I find it gorgeous. Mother Nature is awesomely beautiful in all aspects and just watching that lava is amazing. And the color truly remarkably awesome too. A scene worthy to watch. Love Nature it is the most beautiful creation of this planet. Thank You God for your divine Creation! 🙏🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍👏👏👏👌👌👌🙌🙌🙌🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for the amazing vid!
Excellent reporting. Factual and interesting. So refreshing.
That is absolutely stunning! I wish I could see something like that in person one time.
Made it to the park in 2007, it was shrouded in clouds, never saw it really. But Hawaii is a beautiful place . Go, if you can. Worth it.
@@amykillmeyer4630 it's on my to do list that's for sure, I've been to South America and climbed Cotopaxi in Ecuador up to the refuge. Unfortunately I was not trained to go above that point due to the fact that it's ice climbing on that volcano. I was right next to a couple other major active volcanoes but Ecuador would not let you go to them because they erupted to regularly and I was close to the volcanoes in Guatemala but I have never seen a volcano lake yet! I want to see a lava lake one time or at least a lava field I recommend everybody should at least see one and understand the true power of nature! Heck my first snowman I ever made, I'm a native Floridian, was on top of the second largest active volcano in the world which is Cotopaxi!
Try to go. It is totally worth it. Even if it isn't actively erupting. The whole area is breathtaking and so interesting.
I would love to see the narrator do updates on all volcanoes. I would definitely watch every one
Subscribed due to grate presentation and coverage of what's happening :)
Me: "I'm going to watch an active volcano"
Mom: "Bring a flashlight and warm clothing"
take, not bring
@Da Os mom might be gagging along.
It was cold when we were there like 50s windy and wet
Yep, that worked out so well for the tourists in nz...
@@cadedenton583 sound like a warm afternoon yo me right now
With the lava lake level rising and the first vent being submerged under the rising lava, is that causing a pressure buildup behind that vent? If so, where is that magma being directed to? What will happen if/when the second vent is covered/submerged by the rising lava lake? Does the lava keep filling the caldera or does it stop and then go horizontal to the side and create new fissures outside the base? Interesting to see how this plays out.
Bla bla bla bla
@@evilbeast7029 What did he do wrong sir?
@@evilbeast7029 you are a sad person, now go to your corner!
fine questions, but no person on the face of this earth knows.
Good question! With only a small number of lava lakes, in the last 50 years, there is very little documented science to make predictions upon. We have seen this one at Kilauea rise and fall in the past. Other lava lakes, at other active volcanoes have actually disappeared over time. The last time Kilauea developed a lava lake, the level went up and down over time as gas pockets escaped from deeper within the magma column. Any breakdown of the caldera or vent due to seismic activity has the potential to divert the venting in a totally different direction.
Thank-you synthetic computer voice for your reports on the lava lake in the crater on the island of Hawaii looking forward to more reports on the lava lake in the crater on the island of Hawaii by the computer voice in the new year of 2021.
..........Oh and when will it be possible, computer voice, for people to roast marshmallows over the hot lava in the lava lake on the island of Hawaii in the new year of 2021 in the lava lake on the island of Hawaii.
Great. 2021 is bringing volcanos back. Happy new year
Thank you
Wholeness and positive vibrations to you all!! What amazing times we are in!!
Great footage !!!
Thank you 🌴😎🌴
Wow that’s scary and informative! The combination of current lava and weather video is helpful.
Best computer voice since "I can't do that, Dave."
Any old fogies remember HAL? 🤖🚀🌌
yes indeed i remember HAL. dave?.......dave, what are you doing dave?......
@@725curious Yes! 👍💯🥂
....i more so remember HOLLI.. There all Dead Dave.. Every one is Dead dave..
@@homelessEh Sweet~
Amazing! I would love to see this.
Man, i hear numbers like 7.5 acre island, and 600 some odd feet deep and it just doesn't look like it. I believe it though
Hawaiian realty lists it as a private island surrounded by a lake of lava. There's bound to be an evil emperor willing to place a bid on that!
I couldn't get a proper sense of the size until I finally visited last year. Jaw dropping
0:21 use the helicopter’s shadow as a reference point
What a awesome way to start 2021! :D
That gradient printing capability is dope👍🏻
mahalo nui for the report!
Great reporting.
Kool. Deadly Beautiful indeed..An something to watch closely by all..
Absolutely insane looking!
Amazing...just amazing.
Hawaii strutting into the new year with a bang 💥🌋
Volcano slowly erupts:
People: "Where can I get the best view?"
Volcano: "I'm'a go boom stupid."

Fortunately, Kilauea is of a volcano type not prone to violent, explosive eruption (compared, say, to Mt. St. Helens, for example). While there have been spectacular eruptions (the spectacular Kilauea eruption of 1959 was used as footage for many dramatic movies), the threat to human life is minimal with most flows providing plenty of warning, even if property has been destroyed from time to time. =^[.]^=
@@Raycheetah Well, duh! Kilauea is a *tropical* volcano. More laid back. Warm winds, blue ocean, some sticky drinks with an umbrella in it. Helens is near where they invented Starbucks and crimes against good coffee. I'd explode violently, too!
Let it blow!

@@ViewThis.
So agreed with you!
@@ViewThis. prismatic droplets in air: am i a joke to you?
activity began at dec. 21st but ok.
Like what? Speak English boy!
Thank you and Happy New Year to everyone!
Will be interesting to know what happens once the lake rises to the level of the vent itself. The new lava will need another exit somewhere.
Peles eye is watching all x
TYFS - nature is amazing!
Looking like the pits of hell.
It's almost time to leave with our father up in heaven thank you JESUS
Bless up everybody! Happy 2021🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
AloJAH
Happy New Years 🥳
Solid reporting
It is but a small lake compared to pre-2018 levels, it will be a while before there is another large flow in the rift zones.
I was here 4 years ago...pretty cool place....
"2021 Hawaii Big Gulp!"
Awesome
Would you know if the vent pressure will be sufficient to flow lava once the lava lake overflows the vent?
Love it!
Thanks so much and happy New Year
Very pretty!
Are volcanoes connected? Because there’s increasing activity in Martinique and St. Vincent and the Grenadines right now.
No. Volcanoes are not connected. At any given time there are about 20 erupting volcanoes on Earth. Kilauea is no more connected to volcanoes in the Caribbean than to those in Indonesia.
can't wait to go fishing in that lake
The mantle plume is still going strong, I see, after so many millions of years!
Magnificent!
the fly by video is amazing. now imagine that caldera 16x larger and you have olympus mons.
Well done.
How is this already on RUclips. It was just posted today.. !!😮. Happy new year.
Posted today filmed yesterday, reported findings of today included.
HaPpY NEW YEAR ❤ Everyone. Thank you for the update!!! It looks like a big donut 🍩 with orange icing on top...😂🤗
Does this mean that visitors can’t see any molten lava? Just got tickets for the big island (over Maui) specifically for the volcano; leaving in 2 weeks.
I feel it's about time we updated our popular frame of reference for volume from _"Olympic-sized Swimming Pools"_ to something a little more contemporary. Any suggestions?
What's wild to me, is all those old road beds visible right near the caldera. Anyone have sauce for earlier aerial footage?
Throw it in Frodo!
Great work! Thank you.
People are all bringing in the new year and watching fireworks...and since you all celebrate this calendar day as the new year, Happy New Year .....I personally observed the new year in September during Rosh Hashanah and because i dont go by a regular calendar even..... But it is so good to see people celebrate .
God bless every body..Stay safe out there..
Will it drain or solidify
This gives forged in fire a whole new meaning......I think this was where Excalibur was created.
Are there tidal waves related to Kilauea´s activity across the ocean
Is the lava lake now about one mile wide ? Or more
So is the most active volcano....slowly not being active anymore?
Would-be great if they would put Some measurements about the size on the video. It looks big but yeah, its from a save distance i imagene
Well there's a mini island continent in the middle of the vent of the volcano
That’s my new vacation spot kookaracha village jk jk happy new year 😂😁🥳
Kileaua is a cauldron where lava flows into it but we have no idea where this molten material comes from does it come from Mauna Loa? Or deep down from the earths core and eruption seems to be a misnomer it does not spew lava like volcanoes you see on tv or like mt St. Helens did it just bubbles up from fissures like it did two years ago
wait... that is a computer generated voice over? what software is that?!?!
Happy New Years everyone
With the first discussed impact on human is "when will it be visible for public?" we can assume there is no identified danger for human structures?
This is a classic example of how a news agency takes something small & blasts it out in such a way as to make it seem threatening, as there is a easily accessed live stream that clearly shows the lava lake in question is remaining relatively stable.
Happy new year
Thanks, would be helpful to mention metric equivalents, too many to convert
Se o hawaii está no meio de uma placa tectônica, como pode ter nascido vulcões como o kilauea neste local? Será que a enorme placa do pacífico está se deformando como consequência de algum evento geológico?
If the hawaii is in the middle of a tectonic plate, how could volcanoes like kilauea have been born in this location? Is the huge Pacific plate deforming as a result of some geological event?
Is this close to Mauna Loa Volcano?
God Bless
The Lord our God is amazing! All glory goes to Him.
What is the height of the top of the crater?
Wow!
Wow! ... lake of fire....
You silver-tongued devil... you had me at Caldera.
How do they calculate the depth of the lava?
