Default A space station view on giant lightning

Do giant flashes of lightning striking upwards from thunder clouds merely
pose an extraordinarily spectacular view? Or do they actually alter the
chemical composition of the atmosphere, playing a role in ozone depletion
and the climate on Earth? This is the key question that may be answered by
specially designed cameras, which ESA proposes to place on board the
International Space Station.
