Earthquake mystery: What were the glowing lights in the Turkey sky? Here’s the science behind it

Following a 4.2-magnitude earthquake in Turkey, unusual floating lights were observed, now being studied as rare 'earthquake lights' (EQL). These luminous phenomena, potentially caused by electrically charged particles released from tectonic stress, are increasingly accepted by scientists and are being tracked by space agencies. Research suggests they appear near fault lines where electrical charges can reach the surface.
