Nature: Ball lightning is a rare, poorly-understood phenomenon…

Question

Did you know? Ball lightning is a rare, poorly-understood phenomenon — globe-shaped light objects that sometimes appear during thunderstorms. They drift, zigzag, and often explode. Scientists have debated for 200 years what it is — no laboratory has reliably reproduced it.

Bolbliksem is een zeldzaam, slecht begrepen verschijnsel — bolvormige licht-objecten die soms tijdens onweer verschijnen. Ze drijven, schieten zigzag, en exploderen vaak. Wetenschappers debatteren al 200 jaar wat het is — geen enkel laboratorium heeft het reproduceerbaar nagebootst.
