Scientists solve mystery of how lightning starts
Scientists at Penn State, led by Professor Victor Pasko, have claimed to have solved mystery of how lightning begins. According to them, strong electric fields in thunderclouds accelerate electrons, causing them to collide with air molecules and produce X-rays. This sets off a chain reaction, a cascade of additional electrons and high-energy photons, which triggers lightning, scientists said.

Why did 8.8-magnitude earthquake in Russia not cause a huge tsunami?
The 8.8‑magnitude earthquake off Russia’s Kamchatka Peninsula generated only moderate tsunami. According to seismologists, earthquake’s 20-km depth on a subduction zone's megathrust fault caused only limited vertical displacement of seafloor. This restricted water movement in Pacific and prevented formation of large, destructive waves. Further, no large underwater landslide might also have helped.
