The emission began about 2.4 miles north of the town of Grindavik at around 10.17pm. Monday at the Sundjukka crater in the Reykjavense Landmass.




The stunning film shows magma flowing over the land and skies filled with fire in a spectacular display of Earth's power in a land known for fire and ice.

Live-streamed film of the eruption showed planes of bright orange magma rising from a crack in the ground, surrounded by plumes of red smoke.




The Norwegian Meteorological Agency estimates that 100 to 200 cubic meters of magma per second are regurgitating, which is 'typically higher than recent past emissions at the Reykjaens landmass.'
