At NOAA Kids Day, the NOAA family was invited to bring their kids to work at the Silver Spring, Maryland, campus on April 25, 2019. The National Weather Service brought a Van de Graaff machine, an electrostatic generator which uses a moving belt to accumulate electric charge on a hollow metal globe on the top of an insulated column. This creates very high electric potentials, and is used to teach about electricity, or in this case, lightning strikes.
