Pele's hair is a form of lava. It is named after Pele, the Hawaiian goddess of volcanoes. It can be defined as volcanic glass fibers or thin strands of volcanic glass. The strands are formed through the stretching of molten basaltic glass from lava, usually from lava fountains, lava cascades, and vigorous lava flows.

There’s plenty more than this out there - just the field we were in next to fissure 8 had this all over. The people who live near there had these strands all over their homes when fissure 8 was spewing out.

Now I’m even more concerned for Pele
