Question:
Do you think that you could capture and store lightning for an energy use? If
so, why or why not?
Replies:
There is a book called "The Man Who Tamed Lightning" about a scientist who
though a lot about this question. Some of the big names in the field are
Gauss, Coulomb, Maxwell, Faraday, Cavendish, Tesla, and of course, Benjamin
Franklin. You could look their names up in a dictionary or encyclopedia or an
elementary physics textbook.
