Electrostatic Motor


[pop-cans motor with ion generator 6in away] This small motor is spinning like mad from the couple of microamps coming from a negative ion generator. No wires!

(actually one wire: the ion generator has a 1/2in needle attached to the black disk and pointing towards the nearest pop can.)
[1989 Museum of Science, Boston]
