Just a quick link to a stunning photo of Mauna Kea in Hawai’i taken April 29, 2009 from the International Space Station. You can clearly see the pyroclastic material and abundant cinder cones that litter the flanks of the volcano.

{Thanks to the NASA Earth Observatory for the image link.}

    I lived in Hawaii for 3 years, from 1949 to 1952. I have a postcard bought on Waikiki Beach showing the Mauna Kea volcano erupting in that period. I also flew over the crest of the volcano as it was erupting in a Navy twin engine aircraft as a passenger with 2 Naval Officers, one a Capitan and the other a Lt. Commander. Why does this story not match what is published on the internet?

    Hello just wanted to give you a quick heads up. The text in your article seem to be running off the screen in Safari. I’m not sure if this is a format issue or something to do with internet browser compatibility but I figured I’d post to let you know. The style and design look great though! Hope you get the issue solved soon. Many thanks
