100% Agreed

Absolutely agree which is why I shared it, and I'm very happy so many people are getting education and entertainment value out of it. Sadly the company that released the video and worked with the scientists to get all the footage no longer exists. I was fortunate to purchase a copy of their DVDs which I ripped without compression and uploaded. It would be tragic if all of these videos were lost, so here we are.

@@amitj4917 What is the original title of this DVDs? The same as on KZfaq?

@@Aves81 I believe this one was called "Eruption Update: A Firsthand Account of the Current Eruption of Kilauea Volcano". I don't think I hung onto the DVDs after ripping and uploading them. Unfortunately, they are no longer available for purchase anywhere that I can find. I updated the description on each video that I uploaded from Volcano Video Productions to provide more information.

Ppppppppppppppppp

For the record, I am not associated with the company that put this together. I bought the DVDs but the parent company no longer exists so I'm sharing them because these are impossible to find now.

It's absolutely awful. For 30 years they provided so much value and now they are gone. Ken Hon (who was the primary narrator and videographer in all these videos) now serves as the Scientist-in-Charge of the Hawaiian Volcano Observatory (HVO), so hopefully we get more content like this in the future as new eruptions happen.

Do you know why it’s producing andesite? Is it melting previously erupted basalt that has already crystallized out mafic minerals or is water mixing in somehow a catalyst? I wonder how many tsunamis these islands have produced over time when huge shelfs collapse into the sea and how large they might be.

@@alexburke1899 What happened is after the 1955 eruption was over the leftover basaltic magma undergound cooled very slowly in a process called fractional crystallization. Geologyhub has a detailed video about this eruption. Look for the video in his channel called Kilauea Erupted the Wrong Lava. About 10 years back a new well was being drilled at the Puna Geothermal plant the drill hit a pocket of dacite magma right where the 2018 eruption took place at.

No.

Lava finds a weak spot in the mantle. Either near the edges of a plate or in Hawaii it’s in the middle which is unique. It’s a very fine balance and for us to be able up walk right next to it while it is erupting is amazing. It’s the portal to the center of the earth.

That'd be nice but no I just have these documentaries from the original DVDs

No permits required, either :D

We fixed the glitch. The problem should just work itself out on it's own now.

???

Ameaça de morte

For seconds at most. Don't attempt unless your life is in danger and it's the last option available.

And exactly how should this be done ???

Don’t build there buddy.

have you ever thought that the things we use to channel lava would you know, MELT?
