Kīlauea Volcano's summit

This August 11, 2018, aerial image Kīlauea Volcano's south caldera shows how the summit was changed by the collapse events that occurred between the end of May and August 2. The bright white line circles the outline of Halema‘uma‘u as it was before the onset of the 2018 collapses. Closer views of the fuming spots within the collapsed area are shown in the two photos posted below. Note in the lower third of this image the section of Hawai‘i Volcanoes National Park's Crater Rim Drive (light gray line) that dropped into the crater during the collapse events.
