The same team is now back with another surprising contraption: a miniature, plastic “lightning-in-a-box.” In a recent study ...

A Western Disturbance moving across the northern regions is also expected to trigger significant weather activity in the Himalayan belt.

The team of scientists didn't create a storm. Instead, they used mathematical calculations to simulate the science that creates a bolt of lightning.

Scientists have shown that lightning-like bursts can be recreated in small blocks of solid materials in the lab.

Researchers at Penn State are proving that nature's most powerful electrical discharges can be replicated and studied on a miniature, lab-controlled scale.

Lightning formation and the conditions triggering it have long been shrouded in a cloud of mystery, but new research led by Penn State scientists is lifting the fog. Using mathematical calculations, ...

Sifting through 180,000 observations, the team found a single event. We may have detected a whistler wave on the Red Planet.

Lightning sparked almost 60% of the wildfires—and those blazes accounted for 93% of the total area burned.
