Lightning on Earth is sparked by a powerful chain reaction from outer space

news.ycombinator.com Ben Turner 2025-08-29 04:49:42

The energy needed for thunderstorms could come from an avalanche of electrons seeded by extraterrestrial cosmic rays , a new study claims. Scientists already knew that lightning is an electrical discharge between thunderclouds and Earth's surface, but exactly how storm clouds obtain an electric field powerful enough to hurl a bolt has remained a mystery for centuries. Now, a new study has used computer models to reveal that lightning strikes as the result of a powerful chain reaction that begi

How Does Lightning Start? New Research Provides a Groundbreaking Theory

gizmodo.com Gayoung Lee 2025-09-05 15:35:00

Lightning has long terrified and fascinated scientists and non-scientists alike. For something so relatively common, the precise atmospheric events that give rise to a lightning strike have been shrouded in mystery, but new research is offering some tantalizing clues. A team of engineers and meteorologists believe they’ve cracked the curious case of how lightning forms in the cloudtops, and their solution comes from an increasingly influential contender for cracking climate mysteries: mathemati

Cable Bacteria Are Living Batteries

news.ycombinator.com Niko Mccarty 2025-09-05 16:12:57

Under a cloudless August sky, I sailed upon an InterCity train from København station to Aarhus, an 8th-century Viking settlement that is now the second largest city in Denmark. After disembarking, I trekked toward the local university to a door marked INSTITUT FOR BIOLOGI. Upon entering, I was greeted by Ian Marshall, a lanky Australian professor with graying hair, who ushered me into his first floor laboratory. Dimly lit, the room was thick with the scent of wet earth. Large plastic buckets l

Is it possible to play doom on an oscilloscope using only lissajous figures?

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-10-11 02:57:25

Getting a piece of electronics to run doom (1993) is a classic project in hobby electronics, and so far people have gotten doom to run on pretty much anything, including analog oscilloscopes. However, in all cases that I have seen, the only part of the oscilloscope that is really "running" doom is the CRT display, which is hooked directly to an external computer a la 90's game consoles.Meanwhile, people also have managed to get analog oscilloscopes to display some pretty extraordinary and dynami

Researchers develop a battery cathode material that does it all

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-10-28 09:08:01

Battery electrode materials need to do a lot of things well. They need to be conductors to get charges to and from the ions that shuttle between the electrodes. They also need to have an open structure that allows the ions to move around before they reach a site where they can be stored. The storage of lots of ions also causes materials to expand, creating mechanical stresses that can cause the structure of the electrode material to gradually decay. Because it's hard to get all of these propert
