Hawaii's Kilauea volcano erupted for the 10th time Wednesday evening with spectacular lava fountains, about a week after the ninth episode ended, scientists said.

Kilauea, one of the world's most active volcanoes, has been erupting on and off for nearly two months since it burst to life on Dec. 23.

Kilauea, located about 200 miles (320 kilometers) southeast of Honolulu, is one of five volcanoes that make up the Big Island of Hawaii. The volcano's summit is about 4,091 feet (1,247 meters) above sea level.
