A ball lightning is an unexplained atmospheric electrical phenomenon, described as luminescent ball-shaped object that vary from centimeters up to several meters.
Even though laboratory experiments have resulted visual similarities and effects to reports of ball lightning, the phenomenon is still unclear. On the 27th July of 2015, an unknown flying object was filmed from three different perspectives by residents in Mitino in Russia. The unidentified object was estimated to be a ball lightning, as it showed a bright appearance and the property of flying, which would correspond to the characteristics of such phenomenon.

Being notified by this event, the iwi® methodology could reconstruct the following data of the event:
- Prove, that all three videos filmed an identical object
- Reconstructing of the flight trajectory with timestamp
- The object flew a flight path of 370m within 105 secs
- Vertical acceleration up to 5 m/s
- Flight velocity up to 60 km/h
- Object size of 0.5m in diameter
- Flight altitude from 220m up to310m
The question stays open, if the object was a ball lightning, however the reconstruction confirms that the videos show a real object.
