Geology Picture of the Week

Steep-sided spatter cone formed at the East Pond Vent, near the east end of Pu`u `O`o's crater. View looks west across the hot crust of the new lava fill in the crater. The spatter cone is several meters high.

I just thought since the Science forum has an Astronomy Picture of the Day, it would be fun to have a Geology Picture of the Week. I'm too busy to do a Geology Picture of the Day.

At first glance I thought it said "Geneology Picture of the Week", and the description sounded like my primordial-soup ancestors...
