This video shows a sluggish a'a lava flow from the ongoing July 21 fissure eruption east of Pu'u O'o cone. The lava is flowing over a smoother pahoehoe flow from the 1980's. The hardened clinkers are constantly being floated to the front by the liquid interior. Recorded October 6, 2007.

Erupting lava in crater of Puu Oo vent of Kilauea Volcano in Big Island of Hawaii. July 11, 2007
Pu'u O'o is a dynamic volcanic vent, so you may see different landscapes on its crater depending on when the video was taken. Its geologic features are continuously collapsing and rebuilding over very short periods of time.
