Electrostatic discharge
Electrostatic discharge. Spark of static electricity (purple) passing between two spheres. Static electricity is the accumulation of excess electrical charge in a region or on a surface. When there is enough electrical charge present to overcome the poor conductivity of the air, or enough attraction from a conductor, the charge will travel across the air space in the form of this electrostatic discharge

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library captures the mesmerizing phenomenon of electrostatic discharge. The image showcases a vibrant purple spark of static electricity jumping between two spheres, illustrating the accumulation of excess electrical charge in a specific region or on a surface. Static electricity occurs when there is enough electrical charge present to overcome the poor conductivity of air or when there is sufficient attraction from a conductor. In this instance, the accumulated charge travels across the air space, creating an awe-inspiring display of energy and movement. The intricate details captured in this photograph allow us to appreciate the sheer power and beauty behind this natural occurrence. It serves as a reminder that even seemingly mundane scientific phenomena can hold immense significance and intrigue. As we gaze upon this striking image, we are reminded of the wonders that physics has to offer. The dynamic nature of electrostatic discharge reminds us that energy can travel through gaps and manifest itself in various forms. This print by Science Photo Library not only provides an artistic representation but also serves as an educational tool for those interested in understanding more about static electricity and its physical properties.
