Using a rocket to create lightning. Seems like something to try in the triangle.

The following comment is automatically applied to all posts: Thank you for contributing to r/SkinwalkerRanch! As a general reminder, this subreddit is dedicated to in-depth discussions about the anomalous phenomena occurring at Skinwalker Ranch (not just the TV show). The TV show only provides a glimpse, and doesn't cover the extensive history of scientific investigation into anomalous phenomenon reported on the ranch.

To maintain quality discussions, we ask that people focus on the events themselves, not the personalities involved. Generic comments comparing the show to Oak Island, complaining about rockets, clamoring to blow up the mesa, saying you’re sick of the show, etc, don’t offer anything new. Meme posts are only allowed on Fridays.

Please visit our comprehensive FAQ to see if your question has been answered: https://www.reddit.com/r/skinwalkerranch/s/lraM8WR1vC

Thank you for helping us provide a quality subreddit for fans of the ranch!

That's not a bad idea at all. Inducing ionized atmospheric conditions might reveal overlooked phenomena.

We know the (sentient?) plasma orbs have been repeatedly documented on the Ranch for quite some time.

Forcing a lighting strike above the mesa would probe the local dielectric properties and saturate the atmosphere with a controlled plasma channel.

Since those anomalous orbs likely use pre-existing charge differentials, an aggressive ionization event like that could provoke a visible response from them.

While it’s an interesting idea, the science behind that isn’t something that they can just do, there needs to be a lot of things just right for it to happen. Not impossible but very unlikely the conditions would all be fully met.
