Hawaii Kilauea volcano has devastated Big Island, having erupted explosively for over a month. Earthquakes and lava have continued across the island, but what is the golden ‘hair’ spouting from Kilauea?
Pele in Hawaiian religion is the creator of the Hawaiian Islands and the Goddess of fire, lightning, wind, and volcanoes.
Many Hawaiians believe Kilauea to be home to a family of fire Gods, one of them being Pele who controls lava flows.
Pele’s hair is a type of lava named after the Fire Goddess, and give the appearance of glass raining down from the sky.
It takes the form of volcanic glass fibres or thin strands of volcanic glass formed when the molten basaltic glass is stretched.
