Re: Laser guided Tesla Coil

At risk of continuing this thread, I can imagine that if silver oxide or peroxide was mixed with the rocket engine solid fuel, as an oxidizer, then microscopic particles of silver would be dispersed with the exhaust and 'maybe' create a conductive channel.

Hi All,

Since we are on this half way "on" half way "off" topic,  I remember
a TV show on lightning where they were measuring the field strenght
at a test site and at the proper time would launch a rocket.  The
rocket's exhaust would create a trail of conductive gasses that would
trigger a lightning strike at the test site.

So.....    Has anyone tried to put a bottle rocket on top of the
toroid to see what would happen.

     Are you sure that rocket wasn't trailing a wire?  That's a
standard technique in lightning research.
