       Piton de la Fournaise on  Reunion Island in the western Indian   
      Ocean is one of the most active  shield volcanoes in the world.   
      During its last  eruption, from December 22, 2021, to January 17,   
      2022, very fluid lava flows were observed, the longest being more than   
      1.3 miles (2 km) in length. Fortunately, this fiery flow was confined   
      to the summit region, which is completely uninhabited. Bottom photo   
      shows a closeup view.  Photos taken in January 2022.
