All activity was within a closed area of Hawaii Volcanoes national park. ‘The lava this morning is all confined within … the summit caldera. So plenty of room for it still to produce more without threatening any homes or infrastructure,' said park spokesperson Jessica Ferracane. ‘So that's the way we like our eruptions here.'
