Langmuir Laboratory

Langmuir Laboratory is a research facility located in New Mexico, specializing in studying lightning, thunderstorms, and atmospheric phenomena. Situated at a high elevation, it provides optimal conditions for scientists to observe and analyze severe weather events that are difficult to study elsewhere. The laboratory uses specialized instruments and equipment to gather detailed data on lightning behavior, storm dynamics, and electrical activity in the atmosphere. This research helps improve weather forecasting, safety, and our overall understanding of lightning and storm processes.
