Abstract
⺠Radiation in space consists of X-rays, γ-rays, protons, neutrons and electrons. ⺠Studies of NASA confirm creation of phosphene in humans by such energetic radiation. ⺠Energetic radiation also exists in the vicinity of thunderstorms and lightning. ⺠It is shown that this radiation is strong enough to generate phosphene in humans. ⺠Some of these visual experiences could be misinterpreted as ball lightning.
