The Cumbre Vieja de La Palma has erupted. After more than a week accumulating thousands of earthquakes in the area, the Cumbre Vieja de La Palma has erupted. Huge plumes of black and white smoke have shot out from a point on the volcanic ridge.
The volcano last erupted in 1971. This impressive timelapse has been made with images collected from the Roque de los Muchachos Observatory
