CONTINUE TO FOLLOW ALL EVENING. NOW LET’S TALK ABOUT TONIGHT MADE IN MASS. A LOCAL COMPANY USING OLD-SCHOOL SCIENCE TO CLEAN WHAT YOU CANNOT SEE. >> HOW THAT IS KEEPING US SAFE. >> TO UNDERSTAND WHAT ...

A century after Nikola Tesla sketched a turbine with no blades, researchers are now using that same counterintuitive design ...

A bladeless turbine design converts the static electricity naturally generated by dust particles in compressed air into ...

People from ancient times knew that rubbing certain materials and then touching something caused a spark. Studying what is called electrostatics laid the groundwork for understanding electricity and ...

Static electricity can be a major nuisance in manufacturing facilities. It can affect the finish/quality of the products being produced, impact the speed of the operation, and cause workers to ...

A VERY great advance was made in the earliest form of electricity generator by the late James Wimshurst in the year 1882. At that time several forms of the Holtz and Voss machines were in use, but ...

You might have heard of electrets being used in microphones, but do you know what they are? Electrets produce a semi-permanent static electric field, similar to how a magnet produces a magnetic field.

Static electricity is a ubiquitous part of everyday life. It’s all around us, sometimes funny and obvious, as when it makes your hair stand on end, sometimes hidden and useful, as when harnessed by ...
