Marx Generator Tower One

Marx Generator Tower One

The Marx Generator in Istra, Russia. Constructed in the 1970s by the Russian Electrical Engineering Institute. The aim was to have a machine to test lightning insulation. When at peak power, the Marx generator could discharge for 100 microseconds onto a platform at the same level as all generating facilities in the country. As I used a video to create this model, much artistic license was employed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gCBzycJhdtI
