Swamp plants found in glass from meteor impact, could have been thrown out to other planets (how we find pieces of Mars here on Earth).

Now, evidence has been found around Darwin crater in Tasmania, which was formed by an impact about 800,000 years ago.---Glass created when rock melted during the impact is strewn in a 400-square-kilometre field around the crater. :?
sorry, Sam, this is only evidence that heat formed glass and encapsulated some organic matter, which could have been local, if the heat was generated by an electric discharge. :?

Greetings From explosions in the mars atmosphere triggered by the close encounter with a comet to a more down to earth relationship :D http://phys.org/news/2013-12-bees-elect ... ields.html. f ascinating I say regards Beekeeper

Sorry can't get the link right on first post trying again http://phys.org/news/2013-12-bees-elect ... ields.html hope that works if not just complete electrical-fields.html or go to http://phys.org.org and search for bees flowers electrical. regards Beekeeper

Since none of the inks work, here's something that will help:

Spiders use Earth's electric field to travel "go ballooning"

Unread post by Maol » Sat Jul 07, 2018 8:26 am

Spiders commute, they "go ballooning" with the electrostatic force reaction between their spider silk and Earth's electric field.

Spiders go ballooning on electric fields
July 5, 2018, University of Bristol

....... snip....
"Many spiders balloon using multiple strands of silk that splay out in a fan-like shape, which suggests that there must be a repelling electrostatic force involved," explains lead researcher Dr. Erica Morley, an expert in sensory biophysics.
..........
The solution to the mystery could lie in the Atmospheric Potential Gradient (APG), a global electric circuit that is always present in the atmosphere. APGs and the electric fields (e-fields) surrounding all matter can be detected by insects. For example, bumblebees can detect e-fields arising between themselves and flowers, and honeybees can use their charge to communicate with the hive.
..........
In their study, the findings of which appear today in the journal Current Biology, Bristol's researchers exposed Linyphiid spiders to lab-controlled e-fields that were quantitatively equivalent to those found in the atmosphere. They noticed that switching the e-field on and off caused the spider to move upwards (on) or downwards (off), proving that spiders can become airborne in the absence of wind when subjected to electric fields.

That's why I take out flies with a stealthy rubber band. I can even shoot them out of the air. (The flying rubber band is like a shotgun blast.) That is, if the cat doesn't get them first.
