The magazine ?Columbus Alive? reports that they?ve received
many reports about airplanes ?spraying? or leaving behind
mysterious ?chemtrails? in the sky. When civilian flights were
grounded immediately after September 11, this was more
noticeable than ever. Some people feared the U.S. was under
biochemical attack while others thought we were being
inoculated against anthrax or some other biochemical hazard.
During a flight to Phoenix in early October, a Columbus Alive
reporter saw jets spraying everywhere.
The way to tell the difference between a chemtrail and a
normal contrail is that contrails can only form at temperatures
below negative-76 degrees Fahrenheit and at humidity levels
of 70 percent or more at high altitudes, according to National
Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. And even in most
ideal conditions, a jet contrail lasts no more than 30 minutes.
Chemtrails are large, multiple trails that seem to hang in the
sky indefinitely, then slowly feather out and appear to turn
into cirrus clouds. Some seem to be sprayed intentionally in
geometrically precise grid patterns. Their source and purpose
is a mystery that is addressed by websites such as
chemtrailcentral.com, chemtrail.com, carnicom.com. and
goodsky.homestead.com (a skeptical site).
The official government response is that they?re due to
increased commercial air traffic.
However, in the month after the attack on the World Trade
Center, there was very little commercial airline traffic and
virtually no private civilian air flights, but contrails could still
be seen frequently over many localities.
One ?Columbus Alive? reporter used high-quality binoculars to
look at the planes producing chemtrails and saw that
Stratotankers and KC-10 Extenders, which are refueling
planes, appeared to be used for the spraying.
The Canadian ?Ottawa Citizen? newspaper reported a ?fervor
over chemtrails? on May 16 and said, ?Ground fallout [from
the chemtrails] analyzed in the United States contained
carcinogens and bacteria. Coincidentally in the past decade,
most jet fuel was re-engineered to reduce fire hazards by
adding a long-banned pesticide, which was reportedly also
found in gel samples from chemtrails. Also found were toxic
micro-fibers, much finer than asbestos.?
Explanations for chemtrails range from their use in military
communications applications to scientific experiments
designed to control the weather. A scientist working at
Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, who insists on anonymity,
told ?Columbus Alive? that public disclosure of the
experiments is inevitable and may occur soon. He said that
two different secret projects have been conducted. One
involved cloud creation experiments to lessen the effect of
global warming. The other involved radiation reflection off
clouds in conjunction with the military?s High Frequency
Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP) in Alaska.
The scientist claims that the two most common substances
being sprayed into chemtrails are aluminum oxide and barium
stearate. When you see planes flying back and forth marking
parallel lines, X-patterns and grids in a clear sky, that?s
aluminum oxide. The goal is to create an artificial sunscreen
to reflect solar radiation back into space to alleviate global
warming.
In some cases, barium may be sprayed in a similar manner for
the purpose of ?high-tech 3-D radar imaging. The barium can
be used for a ?wire? to shoot an electromagnetic beam
through to take 3-D images of the ground far over the
horizon,? according to the scientist.
Ken Caldeira, a scientist at Lawrence Livermore Labs and one
of the country?s leading experts on weather modification,
conducted the original computer modeling for the use of
aluminum oxide to fight global warming. He says, ?We
originally did this study to show that this program [using
massive spraying for weather modification] shouldn?t be
done,? due to negative health effects. Caldeira says there
are persistent rumors that the Bush administration will
announce geo-engineering weather modification projects this
spring, which he sees this as ?political suicide.?
Throughout the Cold War, both the United States and the
Soviet Union actively investigated the military use of weather
modification. In 1958, Captain Howard T. Orville served as the
White House?s chief advisor on weather modification. He
publicly admitted that the military was studying ?ways to
manipulate the charges of the earth and sky and so affect
the weather through electronic beams to ionize and de-ionize
the atmosphere.?
Professor Gordon J.F. MacDonald served on the President?s
Science Advisory Committee in 1966, and frequently published
papers on the military use of weather modification. In the
book ?Unless Peace Comes,? MacDonald titled a chapter ?How
To Wreck The Environment.? He described the military
applications of weather modification including climate change,
melting the polar ice caps, techniques for depleting the ozone
layer over the enemy, engineering earthquakes, manipulating
ocean waves and using the earth?s energy fields for brain
wave manipulation. ?The key to geophysical warfare is the
identification of environmental instabilities to which the
addition of a small amount of energy would release vastly
greater amounts of energy,? said MacDonald.
In the early 1970s, the U.S. Congressional Subcommittee on
Oceans and International Environment held investigative
hearings on the military?s research into weather and climate
modification. The committee?s findings included detailed plans
for creating tidal waves through the coordinated use of
nuclear weapons.
A 1977 United Nations treaty, ?The Convention on the
Prohibition of Military or Any Other Hostile Use of the
Environmental Modification Techniques,? prohibited ?the use
of techniques that would have widespread, long-lasting or
severe effects through deliberate manipulation of natural
processes and cause such phenomena as earthquakes, tidal
waves and changes in climate and weather patterns.?
Patent number 4347284, filed in August 1982, outlines plans
to produce a ?White covered sheet material capable of
reflecting ultraviolet rays? from the sun.
Numerous other patents attempted to perfect ?aerial spraying
of liquids,? like patent number 4412654, registered in
November 1983, which describes ?a laminar microjet atomizer
and method of aerial spraying involved the use of a
streamlined body having a slot in the trailing edge thereof to
afford a quiescent zone within the [airplane] wing and into
which liquid for spraying is introduced.?
A patent was filed in July 1986 describing a ?liquid propane
generator for cloud-seeding apparatus.? It reads, ?Apparatus
is provided for release of liquid propane from the holding
chamber of a cloud-seeding rocket.? A new and
improved ?liquid atomizing apparatus for aerial spraying? was
filed as patent number 4948050 in August 1990. ?The
generator is driven from a power take-off from the engine of
the spraying aircraft, a drive assembly includes a device for
controlling the speed of the generator relative to speed of
the engine,? it reads.
The New York Times reported on September 24, 1992 that a
Russian company was selling electronic equipment to
manipulate the weather in a specific area. The Times wrote
that some Russian farmers used the weather-control
technology for greater crop yields.
Shortly afterwards, the Wall Street Journal reported that the
Russian company Elate Intelligence Technologies Inc. was
selling weather control equipment using the slogan ?Weather
made to order.? They quoted Igor Pirogoff as saying that
Hurricane Andrew, which did an estimated $17 billion in
damage, could have been turned ?into a wimpy little squall?
by his company.
South Africa?s Water Resource Commission admitted to being
involved in the actual testing of ?hygroscopic seeding
particles from a seeding flare? in an October 1994 patent,
which says, ?In a confidential technical trial which was
conducted on a small isolated cloud formation above the
Nelspriut area in the Transvaal province of the Republic of
South Africa, two flares were ignited electrically from inside
the aircraft?to produce rain.?
Russia sold former Soviet military weather modification
devices to any country willing to pay for them. ?Malaysia to
battle smog with cyclones? is a headline in the November 13,
1997, Wall Street Journal. ?The plan calls for the use of new
Russian technology to create cyclones?the giant storms also
known as typhoons and hurricanes?to cause torrential rains
washing the smoke out of the air,? the Journal reported.
In April, the New York Times reported that Edward Teller, the
father of the H-bomb, was ?an ardent advocate of the
Reagan administration?s Star Wars anti-missile plan and, more
recently, has promoted the idea of manipulating the earth?s
atmosphere to counteract global warming.?
The U.S. Air Force told CNN in July that it had broken up a
storm over the Atlantic using products made by a company
called Dyn-O-Mat. The company?s website, dynomat.com,
lists ?environmental absorbent products? such as Dyn-O-
Drought and Dyn-O-Storm.
On November 13, a patent was filed outlining a ?method of
modifying weather.? The description says, ?The polymer is
dispersed into the cloud and the wind of the storm agitates
the mixture causing the polymer to absorb the rain. This
reaction forms a gelatinous substance which precipitate to
the surface below. Thus, diminishing the cloud?s ability to
rain.?
Ohio resident Dan King describes a rainy day in July when he
was driving on a highway and ?the rainwater looked like dish
soap water on the highway. I thought it was just from the
resurfacing, but when I got out in the country I saw the
same thing. Piles of suds at the side of the road.? The
scientist who works at Wright-Patterson says that barium
stearate is basically a soap bonded to a metal and could have
produced the soapy-looking rain.
It?s no secret that most governments support other kinds of
manipulation of nature, such as the development of
genetically-modified foods. It?s clear the American public is
worried about the weather, since many areas of the U.S.
have suffered greatly from weather extremes in the past few
years. So why are attempts at weather modification being
kept secret? It can be assumed that a large percent of the
public would be relieved that the government is trying to do
something about the problem.
Perhaps it?s because, until very recently, the official word
from the Federal government has been that global warming
isn?t real. Could this be because oil companies and big
businesses, who have a large stake in not reducing carbon
dioxide emissions, are major contributors to political parties?
Insight: Three-dimensional, over-the-horizon radars use
chemical substances sprayed into the atmosphere to enable
them to get detailed, high-resolution images of targets over
the horizon, and offer the fastest and most comprehensive
imagery of foreign airspace. Post 9-11, such radars would
have been in heavy use to guard against further attacks.
There is no way to tell the difference between chemicals
being sprayed for such radars and chemicals being sprayed
for weather modification.
