An atmospheric electrical field experiment was conducted during Apollo 14 launch to measure the electrical perturbations produced by the space vehicle. The measurements showed the presence of a much stronger electrical field than was expected, and that the disturbance might be caused by a buildup of electrostatic charges in the launch vehicle engine exhaust clouds, charge buildup of the vehicle itself, or a combination of both. Efforts were also made to establish the origin and carriers of the charge.
