Kīlauea volcano on Hawaii’s Big Island erupted on Tuesday in a nine-hour spectacular, shooting fountains of lava some 1,300 feet into the air, according to the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS).

The eruptions at Kilauea prompted closures at a national park and part of a highway because of falling glassy volcanic fragments, including ash.

Hawaii Volcanoes National Park has closed the Kīlauea summit and state officials shut down the main road to the volcano.
