Solar Cycle 25 Energy Input Drives Increase in Atmospheric Plasmoids and Superbolts

Learn why rare energetic phenomena like ball lightning/plasmoids and superbolts peak as solar activity enters the descending phase of Solar Cycle 25. Geophysicist Stefan Burns explains the direct link between solar flares, planetary electrification, and increased atmospheric events.

Short Summary

  • Solar flares supercharge the ionosphere and the Global Electric Circuit, energizing Earth significantly.
  • Plasmoids, confirmed by multiple recent sightings, increase during solar maximum and the subsequent descending phase.
  • Superbolts (extreme lightning) mirror this trend, historically peaking when solar cycle activity wanes.
  • Plasma activity intensifies pre-existing weather systems by increasing the vertical electric gradient.

This session connects high solar energy input resulting from Solar Cycle 25 to noticeable increases in ground-level plasma manifestations. Understand the three key conditions necessary for these events to occur, including the role of solar flux and local atmospheric conditions.

Description

As solar cycle 25 progresses and solar maximum comes to an end and the descending phase begins, rare energetic phenomena such as ball lightning/plasmoids and superbolts are set to occur at their highest frequency in more than a decade! Why does this occur and is there anything to worry about? Geophysicist Stefan Burns reports.

I tried to cross an electric fence once, but I was just a tad too short. What ensued can only be described as "ball lightning". Shure as hell felt like it.

I'm ready for all of this to calm down. I'm either sleeping too much or not sleeping these days. It's just crazy.

Even though we all carry a camera around, here in the form of our smartphones, there is a general problem when filming plasmoids, UFOs and other distant things: AUTO FOCUS! It is never very convincing to see blurry objects that could be "anything". So the next time you want to film celestial phenomena, turn autofocus OFF. Greetings from Denmark.

The veil has thinned and we'll continue to see things that have bee invisible before. Brace yourself.

I have 900 images of plasmoid orbs that I’ve collected over the past year.

And a huge earthquake in Japan and a 12,000 year sleeper volcano in Africa just erupted.

Big announcement everyone!! Our newest tea blend - FestiviTEA - is now available! https://www.earthevolution.com/inventory/festivitea This is hands down our most flavorful tea blend yet, yet it's still super healthy for you!! It's sure to sell out almost immediately so if you want some for Christmas order ASAP. We'll be making more as soon as the next batch of ingredients arrive and my Dad mixes and packs them :)
