Abstract
Former electronic engineer Eddie Sines will never forget what he saw one stormy summer's day while staying at his grandparents' house in Maryland, US, in the early 1960s. As he watched a lightning bolt strike a transformer on a telephone pole near the house, Sines suddenly noticed a light-green luminous sphere, about the size of a tennis ball, appear on top of the transformer. Bouncing off the transformer, the ball skirted along the underside of the cable that connected the pole to the house, came off at a dip in the cable and passed straight through the window that Sines was looking through. It then hit the back wall of the room, where it made a small crackling sound and left bright trails of static electricity dancing all over the wall.
