- The Scientists from the International Space Station (ISS) have observed a bright-blue lightning bolt that is shooting upward from the thunderclouds.
- Such blue jets are hard to observe from the ground because the electrical discharges emerge from the tops of thunderclouds.
- But from space, one can easily observe the phenomenon.
- Blue jets are initiated as “normal” lightning discharges.
- It emerges between the upper positive charge region in a thundercloud and a negative screening layer above the charge region.
