Less common but more powerful than the lightning we see from down below.

5:00 analysis here determined that this was
5:02 the most powerful event ever studied
5:04 this 2018 event carried approximately
5:07 100 times as much electrical charge as
5:09 the typical thunderstorm lightning
5:11 strike so basically this was a hundred
5:13 of these at the same time
5:15 in more scientific terms it carried
5:17 roughly around 300 coulomb of electrical
5:20 charge from the lower atmosphere of the
5:22 planet all the way into the ionosphere
5:25 at the rough altitude of about 90
5:27 kilometers or 50 miles whereas the most
5:29 powerful lightning strike will usually
5:31 carry about five coulomb and it's going
5:33 to be between the cloud and the ground
