2. Miley’s Run #8 Microsphere Electrolysis Experiment Thin Film of Nickel on Plastic Microsphere Substrate Microscopic Picture of a Pre- Electrolysis Microsphere The photographs shown here were taken by E. Lewis of various components of Ni- Plastic Run #8 and components of other experimental runs in the Laboratory of Professor G. H. Miley at the U. of Illinois in 1996. His cooperation in allowing this is gratefully acknowledged.

12. Conclusion Nickle on Plastic Microsphere Run #8 produced the most excess energy of the various runs with this type of configuration in the lab., according to Miley. There were lots of unusual markings on the parts of this cell, and I concluded that these were ball lightning markings. I suspect that microscopic inspection of positive electrolysis or transmutation CF experiments will show that many experiments have microscopic ball lightning marks. I think that some of the pictures of anomalous pits, groves, and scratch-like marks shown in Dash’s articles are caused by ball lightnings. I would like to thank George Miley for his help in this research.
