At our squadron 59 meeting on 12-Sep-22, our Group 3 Commander, Maj Ken Benner, gave an electrifying presentation on science and physics that captured everyone’s attention. We understand that this was the first of two presentations that Maj Benner plans to give. We were very fortunate to have this presentation. Maj Benner started off by demonstrating how 15,000 volts of DC current could cause electricity to flow through air, just like lightning, using his mini-induction Jacob’s Ladder . "Jacob's Ladder" Next, he showed that a magnet falling through a copper tube generates a current in the copper causing a reciprocal magnet field that actually slows down the magnet as it falls through the tube. He did several other demonstrations with other metals that were fascinating. For each demonstration, he explained the physical principals being demonstrated. His last demonstration was the most “exciting” because he electrically charged various members of the audience using h
