One of the most interesting facts about active basaltic lava fields is that they quickly become solidified on the outside while staying liquid on the inside as heat gets trapped there.

This is a shot of a lava lobe, a phenomenon describing a molten lava that break the solid surface as a result of pressure and leaks out in a glowing manner before solidifing itself within minutes.
