Biefeld–Brown effect

Common card · No. 411990

The Biefeld–Brown effect () is an electrical phenomenon, first noticed by inventor Thomas Townsend Brown in the 1920s, where high voltage applied to the electrodes of an asymmetric capacitor causes a net propulsive force toward the smaller electrode. Brown believed this effect was an anti-gravity force, and referred to it as electrogravitics based on it being an electricity/gravity phenomenon. Detailed studies in vacuum chambers failed to replicate Brown's observations and follow-up studies attribute the force measure to corona wind from electrical discharge.
