Scientists Uncover Lightning's Gamma Rays

Japanese scientists at Osaka University have made a groundbreaking discovery, connecting terrestrial gamma-ray flashes (TGFs) to lightning strikes. Their innovative study in Kanazawa revealed that intense electric fields propel electrons at nearly the speed of light, producing gamma rays moments before lightning strikes. This research deepens our understanding of the awe-inspiring forces of nature.
