STUNNING space photographs show explosive molten rock oozing out of Hawaii's Kilauea volcano. NASA's International Space Station and partner satellites have been capturing fissures opening to release streams of lava in the volcano's East Rift Zone. One striking photograph shows lava emerging in the darkness like neon lights, cutting through the Leilani Estates neighbourhood. In another, red hot destructive magma is pictured flowing against the island's leafy vegetation, has now burnt around 50 buildings, including dozens of houses. After fissures began opening up in backyards, molten rock formed rivers before it dissected into forests and farms on its way towards the coast.
