Sakurajima Volcano with Lightning

NASA APOD · Martin Rietze (Alien Landscapes on Planet Earth)
COSMIC MESSAGE

Lightning can strike during a volcanic eruption, as seen here at Japan's Sakurajima volcano in 2013. Hot magma and ash burst through the Earth's surface, creating a turbulent cloud. The exact cause of volcanic lightning is still a subject of research, but it is thought to involve charge separation within the ash plume, similar to how regular thunderstorms generate lightning.
