Light travels at 670,000.000mph, a lightning strike travels at 270,000mph.  It would take 55 mins for lightning to travel to the moon.  When Lightning hits a beach it fuses the grains of sand together and creates a glass tube called Fulgurite.  The place that has been hit by Lightning the most is Lake Maracaibo in Venezuela.  Lake Maracaibo in Venezuela has thunderstorms that happen 140 / 160 nights per year.  Around the World, there are more than 3,000,000 Lightning Flashes per day.  The average length a Lightning bolt is around 2 / 3 miles long.  When we look up at Lightning in the sky it looks to be thick strikes but the lightning is an average of 2 - 3 cm wide.  The heat that travels through the lightning is 5 times hotter than the surface of the Sun. 30,000 oC Thank you...
