Randomly see this awesome vid. Never heard of thunder eggs before. At first, i saw random formations of geo-stuff. At 4:49 , i saw portait of a lakeside at night with full of stars.

@sparkysmalarkey Год назад

@@soupmanofthecan8325 I had an assumption that was way off base. I thought they were like natural fulgurites, when you use a metal rod to cause lightning strikes to hit pure sand, creating glass. Thunder eggs are a geological formation where mineral and agate can be drawn in to a hot gas bubble. I was curious if you could remove the entire outer layer, leaving just the mineral/agate formation in the center. Instead of a 2D slice or half, the 3D part in the center. I do not think it is possible, maybe with a laser and a computer, someone could make a 3D model and print it, idk.
