Glowing ball of light floating12/2/2023 ![]() ![]() Atmospheric ions could pile up at the surface of a window, producing enough of an electrical field on the other side to generate a discharge. The presence of glass may generate ball lightning, according to another theory published in 2012. Elmo's Fire, the stationary glow that is sometimes confused with ball lightning. This ionized air, or plasma, is the same condition that enables St. The Lanzhou researchers' paper supports the theory that ball lightning results from a ground strike that creates a reaction between oxygen and vaporized elements from the soil. EDITOR'S NOTE: Along with his son, Paul, and storm chaser Carl Young-his longtime collaborators-National Geographic explorer and storm chaser Tim Samaras died in a tornado in El Reno, Oklahoma, on May 31, 2013. Using one of the world's fastest cameras, a National Geographic explorer attempts to capture the birth of a lightning bolt. The spectrometer detected silicon, iron, and calcium in the ball, all of which were also present in the local soil. The ball appeared just after a lightning strike and traveled horizontally for about 10 meters (33 feet). Researchers from Lanzhou, China's Northwest Normal University inadvertently recorded a ball lightning event while studying a 2012 thunderstorm using video cameras and spectrometers. That said, scientists seem to agree ball lightning is real, even if they don't yet fully understand what causes it. That and other early accounts suggest that ball lightning can be deadly.Īt least one study has theorized that about half of all ball lightning sightings are hallucinations caused by the magnetic fields during storms. One of the first recorded sightings of ball lightning occurred in 1638, when a " great ball of fire" came through the window of an English church. The heat causes surrounding air to rapidly expand and vibrate, which creates thunder. A lightning flash can heat the air around it to temperatures five times hotter than the sun’s surface. Lightning in general is an electrical discharge caused by positive and negative imbalances within clouds themselves, or between storm clouds and the ground. It's sometimes accompanied by a hissing sound and an acrid odor. ![]() The bizarre phenomenon, also known as globe lightning, usually appears during thunderstorms as a floating sphere that can range in color from blue to orange to yellow, disappearing within a few seconds. But to blanket cases it the same is incorrect.Instances of ball lightning-glowing, electric orbs in the sky-have captivated and mystified us for centuries. So I have a hard time with bugs dust reasoning. What creeped me out was that it moved to the next location I needed to be at before I got there. I had one video of any orb following me around as I was doing house tasks. ![]() You can see it live in the ring app just make sure night vision is on. I always get cold chills when the orbs are around. I’ve also found praying draws out a persistent orb in my house. I found that praying over the area helped reduce the orbs. I guess everyone has a few ghosts in their house. But it kind of makes me feel better seeing everyone is experiencing the same thing. changes I have a hard time believing it’s bugs or dust they the cams are picking up. ![]() I actually had the garage lights going on an off and couldn’t figure out why, I put a ring cam there and see orbs flying around and I guess that’s what’s setting off the detector. They say bugs an dust but your vid is non conforming. Where you able to figure out what it was or did it happen again? ![]()
