Malaysia is one of the countries with the highest lightning strikes incidence in the world. Yet, Malaysians are still taking a proper lightning protection indifferent manner. This might be due to lack of knowledge on lightning characteristics in Malaysia. Therefore, this study presents an unusual lightning phenomenon with multiple grounding points that might cause a disastrous event, called fork lightning. Between November and December 2018, there were three different patterns of fork lightning mechanism successfully recorded by using high speed camera with 2800 frame per second. Temporal analysis of the lightning progress had been done on the samples based only on the camera records which then played back by using Wondershare Filmora video editor. These three samples of fork lightning images were acquired among 37 lightning events recorded in this study. The first sample of fork lightning fully established the forked branch 0.35 ms before the return stroke occurred. On the contrary, second fork lightning established its forked branch 0.35 ms after the return stroke. Both forked branches for third sample simultaneously fully established with the return stroke event. Obviously, these events had striking the ground in up to ten milliseconds of time duration. Thus, there is always a possibility that they might cause serious damage and should not be neglected in designing a lightning protection system.

Principal Axes

Copepods are agile microcrustaceans that are capable of maneuvering freely in water. However, the physical mechanisms driving their rotational motion are not entirely clear in small larvae (nauplii). Here we report high-speed video observations of copepod nauplii performing acrobatic feats with three pairs of appendages. Our results show rotations about three principal axes of the body: yaw, roll, and pitch. The yaw rotation turns the body to one side and results in a circular swimming path. The roll rotation consists of the body spiraling around a nearly linear path, similar to an aileron roll of an airplane. We interpret the yaw and roll rotations to be facilitated by appendage pronation or supination. The pitch rotation consists of flipping on the spot in a maneuver that resembles a backflip somersault. The pitch rotation involved tail bending and was not observed in the earliest stages of nauplii. The maneuvering strategies adopted by plankton may inspire the design of microscopic robots, equipped with suitable controls for reorienting autonomously in three dimensions.
