ScienceCasts: A Display of Lights Above the Storm

Visit http://science.nasa.gov/ for more.

Transient Luminous Events (TLEs) are flashes and glows that appear above storms and are results of activity occurring in and below those storms. Researchers are working to better understand lightning and thunderstorms, how they form and develop over time, and why storms produce different TLEs in different circumstances.
