Abstract

Abstract. In a primary documentary source we found an early record of ball lightning (BL), which was observed in the monastery of Pi (Oliva, southeastern Spain) on 18 October 1619. The ball lightning was observed by at least three people and was described as a “rolling burning vessel” and a “ball of fire”. The ball lightning appeared following a lightning flash, showed a mainly horizontal motion, crossed a wall, smudged an image of the Lady of Rebollet (then known as Lady of Pi) and burnt her ruff, and overturned a cross.

球状闪电的早期记录:奥利瓦(西班牙)，1619年

摘要在一份原始文献资料中，我们发现了球状闪电(BL)的早期记录，这是1619年10月18日在Pi修道院(Oliva，西班牙东南部)观测到的。至少有三个人观察到球状闪电，并将其描述为“滚动燃烧的船只”和“火球”。球状闪电出现在一道闪电之后，呈现出一种主要的水平运动，穿过了一堵墙，弄脏了雷波莱特夫人(当时被称为派夫人)的形象，烧了她的衣领，并掀翻了一个十字架。

期刊介绍： The scope of History of Geo- and Space Sciences (HGSS) is to document historical facts and knowledge and to improve awareness of the history of geoscience. The knowledge of the development of geosciences and their experimental methods and theories in the past can improve our current understanding and may stimulate current research. It is encouraging for young scientists to read biographical material of historical figures in their research area. It is important as well to learn that history of science is an integrated part of the ongoing research in their research area. Another important aim of the journal is the association of historical retrospective and current research.
