At any given moment about 2,000 thunderstorms roll over Earth, producing some 50 flashes of lightning every second. Each lightning burst creates electromagnetic waves that begin to circle around Earth captured between Earth's surface and a boundary about 60 miles up.

This resonance provides a useful tool to analyze Earth's weath...| NASA Scientific Visualization Studio
