This is what Youtube is mainly about for me. Clear and illuminating exposition of fundamental facts of our universe.

If you do this during a thunderstorm, there is sometimes enough current to directly drive a loudspeaker to quite audible volume. The sounds are very interesting indeed, but there is some risk of violent equipment damage and injury.


I found, leading up to a lightning strike, there is a clicking sound that progressively increases in frequency until it becomes a very loud shrieking sound, at which point the lightning strikes, and a "fart" noise is made for a few seconds. Then the process repeats.

Biologist here that has always struggled with physics. This is an easy to understand take on this wild concept!

tbh i was totally expecting some clickbaity video with bad music and someone either using a giant copper wire in the sky to charge their phone or power an led to demonstrate "free energy", but i was pleasently surprised. this is very cool! :)

I thought this was going to be one of those free energy pseudo science videos but I learned some interesting physics instead.

Very interesting !! Nice job !!
And no Physical concept was harmed during this footage ;-)

Thank you for the concise nature of the presentation. Kept me interested on the matter instead of skipping through

I feel like atmospheric energy has so much unexplored potential.

Your videos are unique on the internet. They explain things nobody else does videos about. Also they are very well made and really help understanding the physics behind stuff.

Good vid. Simple, well illustrated and very informative. And very important there was NO WASTED time just concise and to the point.

Kudos for citing Feynman. Not only was he an excellent physicist (in my opinion even surpassing Einstein) but also was an amazing teacher. I recommend those books you pulled off the shelf

I've heard about this potential in the air at my uniwersity. But nobody explainet me this like you. Great job!

Great video! I was not aware of different voltages as you ascend into the atmosphere.

I've always wanted to run a similar experiment for myself using a balloon, but I was too lazy. Thankyou for doing it and sharing your data. I was surprised by how little the amperage was.

Thank you, Steve!
I love this, it helps me think of ways to use the info.
Twin-lead cable could be mounted on a pole, insulated from ground, & be a collector.
If connected to capacitors it may collect enough current for 'practical' uses.
Have a GREAT day, Neighbor!

That was the best explanation for atmospheric electricity generation. Thanks!

Awesome! I clearly should not have dismissed the earlier chapters in the FLoP. I had no idea there was such a large potential gradient in the atmosphere.

2 things

1) the atmo motor runs on difference of energy potential that creates pressure. If you sink your ground deeper, say 12 meters or so, you wind up with better current flow(amps).

2) you can utilize an atmo motor as it's own prime mover. This is easily accomplished by using 2 tesla bifilar pancake coils and permanent magnet (i would use an n35 or better). Place the magnet in between the 2 coils. The coil furthest from the motor and closest to the north pole of the magnet is connected to your ariel. The output of the coil is connected to the input of the coil on the south side of the magnet.

Great video, That explains all the arcing I was getting from my coax long wire in the rain :)

I read somewhere that during the early days most of the North American telegraph system was powered by earth batteries. Nicoli Tesla had some great designs regarding this subject. Nice video thanks.
