Scientists use instruments on the International Space Station to study phenomena in Earth ’s ionosphere or upper atmosphere including thunderstorms, lightning, and transient luminous events.
TLEs take many forms, including blue jets, discharges that grow upward into the stratosphere from cloud tops, and colorful bursts of energy above storms called Stratospheric/Mesospheric Perturbations Resulting from Intense Thunderstorm Electrification or SPRITES.
Understanding these phenomena also could improve atmospheric models and weather predictions.
