Experimental demonstration of electric power generation from Earth's rotation through its own magnetic field

Earth rotates through the axisymmetric part of its own magnetic field, but a simple proof shows that it is impossible to use this to generate electricity in a conductor rotating with Earth. However, we previously identified implicit assumptions underlying this proof and showed theoretically that the...
