🇭🇷 Rare Red Sprites Captured Over Croatia

❤️A rare atmospheric phenomenon — red sprites — was recently photographed in the skies over Croatia.

🔴 These fleeting electrical discharges occur high in the atmosphere above thunderstorms and last for only a few milliseconds, making them nearly invisible to the naked eye.

📸 The sprites appeared above a thunderstorm and were captured using special photographic equipment. Typically located between 50 and 90 kilometers above the ground, red sprites resemble jellyfish or vertical beams of light and are caused by powerful lightning strikes.

This phenomenon continues to fascinate scientists, offering valuable insights into the complex interactions between the weather and space environment.
