Saw lot of videos and it seems pretty easy to push wire to thunder clouds to make lightning hit exactly that wire. Why not put some sort of big ass super capacitor and collect this free power for sake of humanity?

There is a famous art piece called “lightning field” it’s a field with metal rods. Visitors have to get on waitlist to visit, so you hope your visit is during storm season. What ends up actually happening is a lot of nothing, but in the rare cases there is a storm with the right conditions, it’s pretty epic.
Point being, a fairly large scale attempt to capture lightning for the beauty of it, captures nothing most of the time.
