A comparison of the measured Biefeld Brown Effect and the measured global circuit electric field shows several parallels. Both exhibit diurnal variations, and both show a dependence on thunderstorm activity. Based on an analysis of experimental data taken on the Biefeld Brown effect, a case is made for describing this effect as a secondary electrostatic effect related to the global electric field. It is concluded that: 1) the Biefeld Brown Effect is a real effect that is likely electrostatic in nature, and 2) its potential propulsion utility may therefore be limited to the volume between earth’s surface and the ionosphere.
