Hawaii's Kilauea began erupting inside its summit crater Thursday after scientists detected a glow in webcam images inside the Halemaumau crater.

Kilauea is one of the world's most active volcanoes. It last erupted for 16 months starting in September 2021. For, Hawaii had two volcanoes spewing lava side by side when Mauna Loa erupted for the first time in 38 years. Both volcanoes stopped erupting at about the same time. "It was a beautiful eruption, and lots of people got to see it, and it didn't take out any major infrastructure and most importantly, it didn't affect anybody's life," said Ken Hon, the Hawaiian Volcano Observatory's scientist in charge.
It was unclear what connection there could be to the volcanoes stopping their eruptions around the same time. The volcanoes can be seen at the same time from multiple spots in Hawaii Volcanoes National Park near Kilauea's caldera.
