Rocks were blasted out of a fissure on Hawaii’s Kilauea Volcano on Wednesday, May 16, as seen in this video.

The US Geological Survey said the rocks and large pieces of splatter reached a height of 500 feet.

Kilauea’s volcanic activity is expected to continue, experts told CNN. A similar series of events occurred in 1924 and the volcanic activity lasted two and a half weeks. Credit: US Geological Survey via Storyful
