The state of research of the light bullets (LB) formation in the process of femtosecond laser pulse filamentation is presented. LB is a near single-cycle wave packet that is formed in the result of the light field self-organization in a nonlinear dispersive medium under matched spatiotemporal radiation self-compression in the regime of anomalous group-velocity dispersion (GVD). The formation of each LB is accompanied by the generation of a discrete portion of supercontinuum (SC) in the anti-Stokes region. LB is a short-lived robust object with parameters determined by fundamental properties of the medium and the laser pulse central wavelength.
