Volcanic lightning electrifies the atmosphere, casting a spellbinding aura over Volcan de Fuego 🌋⚡️ Volcanic lightning is an electrical discharge that occurs within a volcanic plume during an eruption. It's different from the lightning you see in a regular thunderstorm, and is caused by collisions between ash particles or fragments within the plume, creating static electricity.

Incredible footage of volcanic eruption of a dormant volcano in Ethiopia from a commercial plane. 🌋 The dormant giant exploded with a towering ash column, pyroclastic clouds, and volcanic lightning ripping through the plume like threads of white fire. The entire scene was illuminated by the rising sun… turning destruction into something surreal and almost otherworldly. A moment no one on that plane will ever forget and one the world has never seen until now. ✈️ | Otherworld Earth
