Difference between Gamma ray and Lightning

Gamma ray vs. Lightning

A gamma ray or gamma radiation (symbol γ or \gamma), is penetrating electromagnetic radiation arising from the radioactive decay of atomic nuclei. Lightning is a sudden electrostatic discharge that occurs typically during a thunderstorm.
