Hawaii's Kilauea volcano erupted from its summit early May 17, 2018, shooting a huge plume of ash miles into the sky and prompting authorities to urge area residents to take cover.The Hawaii Volcano Observatory said the explosion within Kilauea's Halemaumau crater -- the biggest since the volcano became more active on May 3 -- had produced a volcanic cloud that reached as high as 30,000 feet (9,000 meters) and was drifting downwind to the northeast. / AFP PHOTO / Ronit FAHL
