What's five times hotter than the sun and capable of sending a DeLorean back to the future? Yep, the answer is a bolt of lightning, which can reach temperatures of roughly 30,000 kelvins (53,540 degrees Fahrenheit). The sun, on the other hand, is eclipsed in this case - its surface temperature is just 6,000 kelvins (10,340 degrees Fahrenheit).
Each lightning stroke typically lasts only last 10 to 50 microseconds (0.000050 sec) and carries hundreds to thousands of amps. The air around a lightning strike is typically superheated to about 20,000 degrees Celsius or over 3 times hotter than the surface of the sun (estimated at 5,500 C).
