This is a really cool website I visited this week.  It is called Blitzortung.  It allows you to track lightning in real time all over the world. It also archives the information so you can find out how many strikes were in a certain area during a certain storm.   They are looking for people in North America to assemble lightning detector kits and become part of the project.
Check out the following for more information:

Have you seen the International Space Station?  You don't know when or where to look?  It is the third brightest object in the sky and it is easy to see if you know when to look.  Sign up at http://spotthestation.nasa.gov/ and they will send you updates of when and where the station will be overhead next.
