Chasing Sprites in Electric Skies: The Mysterious Red Lightning

In this video, we will explore the fascinating phenomenon of sprites, also known as red lightning. These are huge flashes of light that occur high above thunderstorms, reaching up to the edge of space. We will learn how they are formed, why they are red, and how they are related to other atmospheric phenomena such as blue jets and elves. We will also see some stunning images and videos of sprites captured by photographers, aircraft, and the International Space Station. We will also discuss the possibility of sprites occurring on other planets, such as Jupiter.
