Pele's hairPele's hair• Thin strands of volcanic glass drawn out from molten
lava have long been called Pele's hair, named for Pele, the Hawaiian goddess of volcanoes.
• A single strand, with a diameter of less than 0.5 mm, may be as long as 2 m.
• The strands are formed by the stretching or blowing-out of molten basaltic glass from lava, usually from lava fountains, lava cascades, and vigorous lava flows (for example, as pahoehoe lava plunges over a small cliff and at the front of an aa flow).

1.As magma rises to surface pressure of surrounding rock on magma decreases
2.Dissolved gases expand forming bubbles
3.Cause enormous force causing eruption

• Definitions• crust - Earth's outermost, rocky layer. • lava - molten rock; it usually comes out of erupting volcanoes.• magma chamber - contains magma (molten rock) deep within the
Earth's crust. • side vent - vent in the side of a volcano. • vent - opening in the Earth's surface through which volcanic materials
erupt.
