Russian Scientists have spotted unexplained explosions of light in Earth’s Atmosphere in the cloud free skies. The explosions have been witnessed for a while and the scientists can’t come out with a reason for such a process. In this blog we are going to discuss everything related to the explosions.
Scientists with Lomonosov satellite say it spotted several explosions of light. These explosions were spotted dozens of miles above the surface, with no clouds below. As per researchers, numerous examples of unusual space weather phenomena have been spotted in the upper atmosphere before, the team operating the Lomonosov satellite say what they’ve found may be something entirely new.
Despite the occurence of unexplained explosions of light in Earth’s Atmosphere, Russian scientists say there were no signs of storms in the area, according to Sputnik.
The satellite, Lomonosov’s goal is to study high-energy cosmic rays, including gamma rays, magnetospheric particles, and transient light phenomena in the upper atmosphere. As per scientists they have spotted something odd. Something which has a different physical appearance.
‘ For example during Lomonosov’s flight at an altitude of several dozen kilometers, we have registered several times a very powerful “explosion of light,’ the director said.
In recent years, unusual electrical discharges have been captured on film by satellites and even astronauts aboard the International Space Station. There are several types of luminous flashes, most notably red sprites and blue jets.
These bursts of electricity, however, are always associated with storm clouds, making the latest discovery all the more baffling. The Lomonosov Project is working to get to the bottom of such short-lived phenomena such as that recently detected in the upper atmosphere to understand unexplained explosions of light in Earth’s Atmosphere.
While they may occur high above Earth, the effects of space weather can trickle down and interfere with activity down at the surface. What do you think are these explosions? Do we need to fear them? Are these signs of Global Warming finally getting to Earth.. Comment Down Below!
