Volcanic eruption continues, making island bigger
NHK -- May 19
A remote Japanese Pacific island continues to expand because of lava flows from a volcano that began erupting nearly 6 months ago.
An NHK crew took an aerial video of Nishinoshima Island to the far south of Tokyo on Sunday.
Columns of smoke are rising from 2 craters. One of them is spewing lava, cinders and black smoke every few seconds.
Tokyo Institute of Technology Professor Kenji Nogami accompanied the crew. He says lava is flowing from several locations other than the craters.
Steam is rising on the shore because lava comes into contact with seawater there. Nogami says high-temperature lava flows into the sea underneath the solidified surface, forming lines
