EE Lightning on TV

Post by John »

You've probably already seen this, but if not it's on BBC iplayer for a while. Auntie Beeb took one up to 55,000 feet to investigate various aspects of the atmosphere!

Kind regards

Interesting link that. I just sat and watched the lot (it's 58mins worth though the Lightning bit is at the begining) ;-)

Very interesting. Remarkable to think that when we built the lightning, on land, we were going around in Steam Trains!
