Much of the scientific investigation processes understood from the Hindenburg disaster could help give an understanding of what's going on over there. An area which somehow creates more positively charged particles in the air is not unheard of in certain areas. High emf locations can trigger many different feelings , responses, and actions from that energy flowing into your brain which conducts its own type of electricity. It was a big reason scientists and doctors back in the day often looked towards electrical treatment as a possible way of fixing someone's mind. It's something that I take into an account when paranormal investigating. Anything or everything can be a factor and I guess that is why I'm intrigued by the subject.

Nikolai Tesla did the same thing with light bulbs set in the ground.

[@pmurray8065]

That is because the Earth and the atmosphere around it are similar to a huge capacitor, a two-pole device that has positive charges on one side and negative charges on the other, except that the Earth is zero potential and the atmosphere contains both positive and negative charges, either of which can build up to a sufficient charge to overcome the resistance of the atmosphere to the flow of current between the two until the atmospheric charge becomes sufficient results in a lightening strike (which happens on average about 300 times per second worldwide). The Earth's electromagnetic field can induce a current in the earth or other things when the "lines of flux" of that field are crossed, broken, cut. The collapsing of the field lines of flux cause an induced current. The light bulbs were the functioning devices that made use of the natural effects of the electromagnetic field of Earth.

Almost all soil is conductive, so it is no surprise they got a reading, especially since the water table isn't that far below the surface. If they were following the scientific method, they would have compared their readings to soil conductivity charts to see how their reading compared to others. Taylor said he wasn't expecting a reading that high, which means he hasn't bothered to look up a soil conductivity reference.

The resistance of soil can vary widely depending on several factors, including moisture content, mineral composition, temperature, and compaction. As a result, there is no one-size-fits-all answer to what constitutes "typical" soil resistance values. However, here are some general guidelines: Dry Soil: Dry soil typically has higher resistance due to the lack of moisture, which serves as a conductor. The resistance of very dry soil can range from hundreds to thousands of ohms per foot. Moist Soil: Soil with moderate moisture content generally has lower resistance compared to dry soil. The resistance of moist soil can range from tens to hundreds of ohms per foot. Wet Soil: Saturated or very wet soil offers the lowest resistance due to the high moisture content, which enhances conductivity. The resistance of wet soil can range from a few ohms to tens of ohms per foot. Clay vs. Sandy Soil: Clay soil tends to retain more moisture and typically has lower resistance compared to sandy soil, which drains water more quickly and may have higher resistance. Seasonal Variation: Soil resistance can also vary seasonally, with resistance typically decreasing during wetter seasons and increasing during drier seasons. Based on the above facts, the soil resistance of of about 43 ohms (12V/0.28A) for about 50 feet length of soil is not too low. It is the normal value of resistance that can be expected. I think there is some misunderstanding here. This is not to offend any one. I totally and fully appreciate the rest of the findings of the investigating team and I am really blown away by the realization that how very little we know about our world.

hi guys, i work as an engineer (although I'm not an electrical engineer by training): I just fix solid state devices and optimize systems most of the time. electrolytes are any mineral that transmit an electric charge. We dont actually know, in this case, what voltages set off Eric's "lightning meter" (and why he decided to wear one) :) what I think is happening here, is a simple change in electrical potential. when guy in blue shirt disconnects battery circuit, a change in atmospheric electrical potential occurs (known as a discharge) . the discharged current is being detected by the lightning meter. as far as I recall all electrical charges will seek earth (returning to a neutral state). as other commentators have pointed out, a control circuit wasn't used (meaning a detector might "beep" everywhere with a 12v circuit, not just the ranch). conclusion: they're probably just detecting an "ambient electrical discharge" from the 12v circuit... peace. thanks for reading.

That is an immensely low resistance for soil. Consider a charged car battery at 13.5 volts, and 50 feet of soil conducting 280 mA, Ohms law calculates the resistance of the soil at 48.2 ohms, or slightly less than 1 ohm per foot. This is an insanely low number. Normally even damp soil will have a resistance of many thousands or even tens of thousands of ohms per foot.

Knowing the depth of the water table is critical, guys. The reading you're taking, because of the 50' spread of the electrodes, is at a depth of 50'. If the water table is close to that, you're seeing the current through the water, mostly. Also, the ground can generate voltage, depoending on the minerals present. You should do a test for ground voltage, too. No battery. Just the voltage.

Question: What does electricity/electric currents have to do with aliens? I may have flunked every science class I had from K-12 but I still feel smarter then the four of them combined.

[@iconicamericano1131]

A survey found two similar anomalies on two separate areas of the ranch. They wanted to know if there could be some connection between the two anomalies which prompted them to measure the conductivity in the dirt. According to them, that high of an electrical reading in the ground could imply that there's some kind of underground energy source. If there is & it turns out to be an unnatural source of energy, they'd need to answer 2 questions...what is the source & who put it there?

Hey, History Channel, how about a more accurate title to your previews? This isn't Ancient Aliens.

[@colin-4794]

This is what I get from what is shown here; The ground is remarkably conductive, allowing a relatively high current flow. The lengths of wire plus the ground form an inductance. Disconnecting the battery from the circuit produces a high voltage back emf pulse (this is a well known phenomenon in electronics), this very brief but high voltage pulse produces a strong electric field vector in the immediate surroundings. The lightning detector is triggered by sensing high voltage pulse vectors. So it is no surprise that it sounded off. What this has to do with e.t’s I have no idea, a clickbait title.

How about the high voltage power lines the run behind the property, behind the mesa/hills... they are spewing electrical current into the ground. Someone measured the EMF... it's so bad that people start shaking 50 feet away and you can't even go near the towers as it feels like your head will explode (aka 'swimmy head' as travis calls it). This is causing all sorts of weird stuff including the hills glowing at night, orbs, and even magnetic field on top as the property basically shaped like a satellite dish projecting the field up. Surely they can see the huge power lines from the property, but of course it doesn't show up on video.

[@barrybrevik9178]

When I was in grade school, I learned that the Earth's soil is conductive. It varies of course, but in general, the resistance is very low. This is why you attach your home's electrical system to a grounding rod, for example. In high school, I learned that disconnecting a conductor from a live system will create some level of electrical discharge (that is, arcing), and a car battery sources plenty of current for creating an arc. Atmospheric electrical discharge is what lightening detectors are designed to detect, so pulling a wire off a live electrical circuit that is 12 inches away from a lightening detector is going to set it off. So, they use an entire tv segment to demonstrate two concepts that any adult already knows, and somehow determine that this must prove the existence of an alien civilization?! How stupid do they think we all are?
