First Ever X-Ray Photo of Lightning!
First Ever X-Ray Photo of Lightning!
You can read the full article about the image over at geekosystem. But the coolest part is that apparently we can control lightning!:
"For those looking at the picture and thinking Florida weather must be insane if lightning bolts streak across pretty blue skies, yeah, Florida weather is a little ridiculous at times, but in this instance, the researchers artificially triggered the lightning by shooting small rockets with wires attached into the thunderstorms in order to direct the lightning into the camera’s view."
