Mount Kilauea on Hawaii's Big Island has resumed its on-and-off eruptions, which have been captivating residents and visitors for nearly a year.

The volcano is currently erupting again, sending fountains of lava high into the air and lighting up the night sky with a brilliant red glow.

The eruption is currently contained within Hawaii Volcanoes National Park.

Still, scientists from the U.S. Geological Survey are closely monitoring the increased seismic activity and the behavior of the lava flow.

Episode 38 of the Halemaʻumaʻu eruption began at 8:45 a.m. HST on December 6, featuring increasing tremor and decreasing tilt.

Lava fountains reaching heights of 50-100 feet (15-30 meters) are erupting from both the left and right vents of the north cone.

Past episodes have generated lava fountains over 1,000 feet high, creating plumes that reach 20,000 feet.

At this time, no communities are at risk, although the event has attracted worldwide attention.
