A thunderbolt or lightning bolt is a symbolic representation of lightning when accompanied by a loud thunderclap. In ancient Hellenic and Roman religious traditions, the thunderbolt represents Zeus or Jupiter (etymologically 'Sky Father'), thence the origin and ordaining pattern of the universe, as expressed in Heraclitus' fragment describing "the Thunderbolt that steers the course of all things". It is the same in other Indo-European traditions, for example the Vedic Vajra.
In its original usage the word may also have been a description of the consequences of a close approach between two planetary cosmic bodies, as Plato suggested in Timaeus, or, according to Victor Clube, meteors, though this is not currently the case. As a divine manifestation the thunderbolt has been a powerful symbol throughout history, and has appeared in many mythologies. Drawing from this powerful association, the thunderbolt is often found in military symbolism and semiotic representations of electricity.
Thunderbolt is the brand name of a hardware interface that allows the connection of external peripherals to a computer. Thunderbolt 1 and 2 use the same connector as Mini DisplayPort (MDP), while Thunderbolt 3 uses USB Type-C. It was initially developed and marketed under the name Light Peak, and first sold as part of a consumer product on February 24, 2011.
Thunderbolt combines PCI Express (PCIe) and DisplayPort (DP) into one serial signal, and additionally provides DC power, all in one cable. Up to six peripherals may be supported by one connector through various topologies.
The interface was originally intended to run exclusively on an optical physical layer using components and flexible optical fiber cabling developed by Intel partners and at Intel's Silicon Photonics lab. It was initially marketed under the name Light Peak, and after 2011 as Silicon Photonics Link. However, it was discovered that conventional copper wiring could furnish the desired 10 Gbit/s per channel at lower cost.

IÂ'm trapped in a forest that is hiding our peace
I cannot get out, and I still do not know why it is so,
Why IÂ'm down here below these trees that is
Casting their shadows on me
TheyÂ're whispering my name,
I can hear, but I donÂ't reveal that I do,
They shake, but IÂ'm just moving on,
Through the dark woods with a torch in my hand,
I search for a sign, but I still have not found what weÂ've lost.
IÂ'm frightened, but IÂ'm just moving on.
They cried for my soul as I walked out the gates,
Fear of my defeat was their pain.
IÂ'm leaving this world with my head held high,
My courage is made out of steel.
IÂ'm trapped in a forest that is hiding our peace.
Will I ever get out of this dark world that casts its dread on us all
I will fight and I may fall into the hands of this creature that has captured our dream,
It is whispering my name.
I can hear but I donÂ't reveal that I do,
Now it screams, but IÂ'm just moving on.
They cried for my soul as I walked out the gates,
Fear of my defeat was their pain.
IÂ'm leaving this world with my head held high,
My courage is made out of steel.
This frost IÂ've become will only melt,
