Ball Lightning as a Port to a Parallel Space

Abstract

Barry¹, Singer², Stenhoff³ have prepared detailed accounts of the curious properties of ball lightning. Current theories, based on present-day physics, fall into two categories: one in which energy is stored in the ball-lightning, and the other in which energy is fed into the ball-lighting from some external source. None of these theories is considered successful by these authors. Recent developments in physics and astrophysics have led to the concept of parallel worlds⁴. We suggest that this concept may lead to a successful theory of ball lightning.
