For 25 years, Hawaii’s Kilauea Volcano has been spouting lava. Some people call it the most active volcano in the world. Now it's doing something that most people don't get to see - it's pouring into the ocean. It's a clash of fire and water - and it's amazingly beautiful.
Clouds of steam with beautiful hues of red, purple, and gold make it a mesmerizing sight.
