Mysterious Ball Lightning: Also Will O the Wisps, Foo Fighters, and St Elmos Fire

Ball Lightning — one of nature’s most astonishing enigmas is a phenomena which definitely exists. One European study counted over 5,000 sightings that ignite both wonder and scientific curiosity of these weird balls.

It also seems to be similar to old tales of the “Will O the Wisp” and World War Two Foo Fighters.

St. Elmos Fire also has similar observations so data on this phenomenon that dazzles scientists, baffled yet intrigued and mystics alike are included too.

There are many potential explanations but none are confirmed. Although most seem to appear around thunderstorms this is not always the case.

My own belief is that these objects are controlled by some type of intelligence and we will discuss reasons for this later in the book.

In this book you will read a lot of background information and sightings that ignite both wonder and scientific curiosity stories by persons for the last hundreds of years.

This is just another mystery in our strange world which cries out for more investigation.
