When will mont kilauea stop erupting?
It will probably not stop for many centuries. At this time, Loihi seamount, and undersea volcano on the bottom of Mauna Loa, is spewing lava and is growing. It will become the next Hawaiian Island, and eventually create a large addition to the Big Island. Assuming that this process will not stop, Loihi will continue to spew and erupt, as other volcanoes like Mauna Kea, Mauna Loa, and Kilauea eventually grow even more dormant. Although there is a chance of another active volcano on Maui, these volcanoes will become extinct, like Diamond Head near Honolulu, on Oahu. Loihi will be the new Kilauea.
