History of Rocket Triggered Lightning
摘要
The scientific exploration of lightning has always been the concern of many scholars, but due to the instantaneity and randomness of lightning, it is difficult to make a stable scientific observation of lightning. In the mid-twentieth century, the development of artificial lightning trigger technology, that is, by launching small rockets with metal wires into a lightning cloud, lightning can occur at a predicted time and place, providing conditions for direct measurement of lightning currents and electromagnetic fields.
