Scientists have discovered a new phosphorus mineral formed by a Lightning Strike, similar to those found in meteorites and space. The lightning strike created a chemical reaction that has never been seen before, resulting in a new mineral group that combines properties of space minerals and those found on Earth. This finding suggests that lightning strikes like these could have produced chemicals that kick-started life on our planet. The fulgurite produced by the lightning strike was analyzed by geoscientists and found to contain a unique material that has never been seen before. Further research will be conducted to determine if the material can be officially declared a mineral.
