I don't want to start a new thread each time I think up of a technical question, so I'll start this thread. Sometimes, random things trigger these questions and I can't stand not having an answer.
So far, I only have one question, but I'm sure more will come.
Last night there was a mighty big thunder storm (it actually woke me up, so it's pretty big) and I decided to watch it. So, I saw a couple of airplanes go by actually, while the big thunder bolts were flying. My question is, how do planes keep themselves from getting zapped?
