On the topic of volcanoes, I am keeping a close eye on both Ta’u, Mayon, and Mauna Loa. While I wait for more data at Ta’u in American Samoa, I noted that Mayon now has an occasion orange crater glow (incredibly faint per phivolcs) and a visible heat signature on satellite.
On the topic of patreon $25 requests, I am beginning work on Grimsvotn and the flagstaff lava river cave videos.

I can cover this! The west Maui volcano (pu’u kukui) should for all intents and purposes be extinct. Even already experienced its rejuvenation stage! I hope to cover it in a future video.

I live on maui on the west side near a volcano named pu'u kukui on lahaina side how active is my volcano and what are some cool geologic features if you know like formation of eka crater and honokahau water fall erosion history

Sort of tangental to the topic, but I have to wonder how the observatories on nearby Mauna Kea would be affected by earthquakes and eruption activity... those telescopes can't like being shaken around one bit, but I also can't imagine that the observatory designers and operators weren't taking that into account. We need to get you to Hawaii to show-and-tell things beyond the touristy stuff. The Great Crack, other islands in the chain, etc., and a visit to the observatory would be a bonus. Do you think your status as a fellow academic with extensive knowledge of the shaky rock the observatories are on could land you a behind-the-scenes tour or an interview concerning seismic precautions at these telescopes? I think it would make a great crossover between the astronomy and geology communities.

I look forward to all you decide to do

I also am guilty of this feeling. Hopefully away from a populated area.

Is it bad that I really want to see some action from Mauna Loa?
