How lightning forms in general is still debated among scientists, and volcanic lightning is even less well understood. What is mostly agreed upon is that the process starts when particles separate, either after a collision or when a larger particle breaks in two. Then some difference in the aerodynamics of these particles causes the positively charged particles to be systematically separated from the negatively charged particles. Lightning is the electrical flow that results when this charge separation becomes too great for air to resist the flow of electricity.

2. Why do you think its a fake? This volcano has been erupting on and off ever since humans were invented
3. Its HAS been in the news, and several ATS threads even mention it if you'd bothered to do a search.
4. Dissapointed with the obligatory blaming of HAARP based on nothing except your imagination.
