Until recently, it was believed that all the beauty and horror of thunderstorms were over our heads.

However, stormy passions rage not only under the clouds, but also above them, lightning shoots up into space.

A scientific conference was held at the Institute of Space Research on the results of the work of the Chibis satellite, which was sent into space to study high-altitude lightning.

When a satellite flies over a thunderstorm front, it captures the radiation of waves of various lengths.

Scientists believe that there is a benefit in atmospheric electricity discharges.

According to one version, it was thanks to this powerful source of energy that the first life appeared on Earth.

The plot starred Professor Stanislav Klimov, Professor Sergey Svertilov, cosmonaut Pavel Vinogradov, leading researcher at the All-Russian Electrotechnical Institute Vladimir Sysoev.
