USGS - MLK 1 Year Time-Lapse

This is quoted from the page were this video was found


A time lapse camera has been poised on the southern flank of Pu`u `O`o cone since early 2004. This location overlooks the Martin Luther King (MLK) vent and provides a distant view of the top of the Prince Kuhio Kalanianaole (PKK) tube system--the currently active tube system at Pu`u `O`o. This movie shows the long-term development of the MLK and PKK vents by stitching together one image per day from April 2004 to March 2005. Some days are missing due to bad visibility or broken cameras. Images were, in most cases, rotated and cropped to accomodate changes in camera position. One of the most interesting things this movie shows is the relatively rapid inflation and deflation of the lava surface around the MLK vent.
