The lightning is quite common in the atmosphere but it always happens very quickly, so the camera can not always catch up. That's why photos taken of lightning when viewed from outer space are quite rare.
NASA revealed there are about 4.3 million lightning strikes a day, equivalent to 1.5 billion lightning strikes throughout the Earth every year. Even so, NASA said, the agency is only interested in the rare type of lightning that can emit gamma rays, a type of radiation that is usually only produced when a star explodes or fuses.
Such lightning strikes are often referred to as TGF or gamma lightning . They have tremendous energy and can produce antimatter in the Earth's atmosphere in just 1 second.
