Mauna Loa has been classed as an active volcanoe since its first recorded erruption in 1843. Between then and the 1984 erruption it has had a total of 33 eruptions. Because it is not currently erupting does not change its classification to inactive as long as there remains emmissions and earthquake activity. It has continued to display at least some activity since it was created between 600,000 and 1,000,000 years ago according to geologic studies. In the years between 1843 and today the lava flow has covered a total of 806 square kilometers.
The most spectacular modern eruption was in 1950 when lava reached the sea from the summit (15 miles) in three hours and the flow lasted for 23 days. The 1984 event released only about 30% as much lava but reached speeds of up to 700 feet per hour.
