The kite experiment is a scientific experiment in which a kite with a pointed conductive wire attached to its apex is flown near thunder clouds to collect static electricity from the air and conduct it down the wet kite string to the ground.

Franklin?s experiment demonstrated the connection between lightning and electricity. To dispel another myth, Franklin?s kite was not struck by lightning. If it had been, he probably would have been electrocuted, experts say. Instead, the kite picked up the ambient electrical charge from the storm.

Flying a kite in a storm was perhaps Benjamin Franklin?s most famous experiment that led to the invention of the lightning rod and the understanding of positive and negative charges. The connection between electricity and lightning was known but not fully understood.
The Kite Experiment: A Groundbreaking Discovery

In June 1752, Benjamin Franklin embarked on a daring experiment that would forever change our understanding of electricity. Armed with a simple kite made of silk, a key, and a length of string, Franklin set out to prove his hypothesis that lightning was, indeed, a form of electricity.

At some time during 1751 or 1752 Franklin got the idea that he could send his conductor high enough by means of a kite, and that if it were flown during a thunder shower, the wet string might serve to bring the electrical charge down within reach.

Here's how the experiment worked: Franklin constructed a simple kite and attached a wire to the top of it to act as a lightning rod. To the bottom of the kite he attached a hemp string, and to that he attached a silk string.

What was Benjamin Franklin?s kite experiment? Of course, what really made Franklin a world-famous scientist was his legendary kite experiment, so famous that it even gets a namedrop in the musical Hamilton ? that is, despite ongoing uncertainty whether it happened at all.
