your birthday.
“Gigantic Jets Over Oklahoma” was a movie, or a file NASA no longer keeps, so there's no still picture of it to put on this card.
See it on NASA's siteA gigantic jet, a newly discovered type of lightning, shoots from a thunderstorm over Oklahoma towards Earth's ionosphere. This rare and powerful discharge, captured by a meteor camera, traversed about 70 kilometers in under a second. It shows the extreme electrical phenomena that can occur in our atmosphere.
