“Spurts of lava mix with lightning over Iceland’s Eyjafjallajökull volcano on Sunday. National Geographic Your Shot submitter Oli Haukur Myrdal captured the electrifying light show. All types of lightning are still largely mysteries to scientists, University of Florida’s Uman said. Since people can’t easily get inside thunder and lightning storms, no one knows exactly how they form, he said. However, scientists can install instruments near volcanoes’ vents to measure certain data, such as the magnetic field—something scientists are doing right now in Iceland, he said.”- National Geographic
