Atmospheric Sprites

February 17th, 2006 at 2:14 pm (Cool!)

I found this story while surfing a bit this afternoon. They’re really quite pretty, and the idea of a 7000 fps camera is just cool. There’s a movie here too.

Atmospheric Sprites are flashes of light above thunderclouds during intense storms. I didn’t even know they existed.

Thanks to Digg, a great source for tech/cool stories.
