Satellites in space see lava pouring from Hawaii's Kilauea volcano

From the ground, lava pouring from Hawaii's Kilauea volcano can look terrifying. 

Over the past few weeks, newly cracked fissures in the ground have allowed fountains and pools of molten rocket to well up to the surface, destroying homes and other structures in the area surrounding the active volcano.

But from space, those fissures and lava flows take on a new look.
