[LOOK] Hawaii's Mauna Loa Continues to Blast Lava in Stunning Satellite Images

Mauna Loa has been releasing between 133,000 and 200,000 tons of sulfur dioxide since its first eruption.

The largest volcano in the world has been sleeping soundly for more than four decades that is until a week ago, Mauna Loa rose from its deep slumber and spewed lava and plumes of volcanic ash.

However, it is worth noting that the ongoing eruption does not pose threats to humans and properties, according to the United States Geological Survey (USGS).

But this does not stop several satellites from getting a closer look at the raging volcano. Following its Nov. 27 eruption, space agencies around the world are not letting this rare event pass without capturing stunning satellite views of the Mauna Loa.
