Spectacular footage: NASA showed how lightning looks from space

NASA has published a photo of lightning that made weather satellite.

NASA unveiled the first pictures taken with the orbital detector of lightning GOES-16. It was launched into orbit in November last year from Cape Canaveral.

The satellite GOES-16 has many systems of fixation and analysis of received information on the Ground regarding the formation of storm clouds, move of atmospheric fronts. Due to the fact that it is high enough, it can real-time monitor the developments in the Western hemisphere.

This allows not only to fix any storm activity, but also to predict the future movement of the storm mass, that allows you to more accurately predict the weather. This is especially true for the needs of the military, are in open ocean, and farmers who grow crops in arid regions.
