- Abstract:
The article "Unraveling the Mystery of Lightning Superbolts" explores the phenomenon of superbolts, which are lightning strikes at least 1,000 times more powerful than ordinary lightning. These superbolts have been detected over oceans and are concentrated in specific regions, such as the North Atlantic and the Andes. Researchers have found correlations between superbolts and factors like the Earth's magnetic field, cosmic rays, and cloud formation. Despite their rarity, superbolts are a fascinating natural occurrence that scientists continue to study. [Extracted from the article]
