00:00:05 Lightning researcher elissa eastvedt is crouched down in an underground bunker at the top of the magdalena mountains west of socorro, new mexico.00:00:15 >> I'm in an underground room.00:00:16 My ceiling is at the ground level at the top of the mountain.00:00:20 trigger and direct lightning strikes to a target of her choosing.

00:00:26>> The goal with these triggered lightning experiments is really trying to find out what starts there's a lot we don't understand about lightning, and one of the biggest questions is, how does what's the there's a lot that we do understand about what happens during the lightning flash, but how it gets started is still a complete mystery.

00:00:47 >> Lightning is produced in thunderstorms when liquid ice particles collide, building up large electrical fields in the but what actually triggers them is a mystery.00:00:59 Elissa's experiment is off limits to film and video.

00:01:03 She's in a protective underground chamber, shielded by above her is a rocket she'll launch into the it's attached to a wire nearly one mile long, anchored to the ground.00:01:17 As storm clouds gather, elissa will become the target.

00:01:23

>> You're trying to intercept a lightning bolt that's going to you're watching your monitors to make sure the cloud conditions are right for a lightning bolt to strike and then you want to get your rocket up in the air so that that lightning bolt decides to strike your rocket and come to your instruments instead of striking somewhere else around you.

00:01:43 >> Elissa launches rocket after rocket hoping for a bite.

00:01:47>> Triggering lightning really is a lot like winning the you can set up all the conditions right, and you can do everything to the exact time that you hope is right, and you can still be wrong.

00:01:59 , on the sixth launch, it happens.00:02:05 These are the actual images.00:02:08 Lightning strikes the rocket.

00:02:10 Millions of volts of electricity pulse through the wire to a ground target, which measures data.

00:02:16>> In the video, when the lightning flash is showing there, you can see a bright, straight segment, and that bright, straight segment is the so the rocket is basically at the top and above that, you have the rest of the lightning bolt.

00:02:30

>> Now, imagine if this was a battlefield and that target was a rocket could be sent up over that tank with a dangling wire, which could direct a lightning strike right elissa is doing lightning research for the new mexico institute of mining and technology's langmuir laboratory, with no intended military but once we know how to trigger lightning, weaponizing may not be far off.

00:02:59 >> Lightning would be a devastating weapon to be able to bring into the modern battlefield.

00:03:06 >> Among the deadliest natural phenomena known to man, a single lightning bolt can stretch over 5 miles and top 50,000 degrees fahrenheit, the equivalent of 5 suns.

00:03:19>> On the one hand, I mean, it could certainly kill large numbers of troops, but far more importantly, it could short out the sensitive electronic systems that lie at the heart of much of modern weaponry.

00:03:33 Lightning strikes could take out radar systems, could render guidance systems inoperative, could interfere with all sorts of computer software.

00:03:45 >> It is harder to imagine a cooler weather weapon than the ability to be able to throw these lightning bolts at your enemies like zeus.

00:03:55 >> There are key barriers to overcome in order to weaponize lightning, torrential rains, even hurricanes.

00:04:01 That's impossiblehas assembled one-- an aggressor must be able to trigger the weather where and when it's needed.

00:04:10 2--There would need to be a way to target the weather, like aiming a lightning bolt at an enemy installation.

00:04:17 And 3--the technology would have to be plausibly deniable, which means it wouldn't show a fingerprint of who launched the strike.00:04:30 At the nevada lightning lab, greg leyh is also trying to find out what triggers lightning.00:04:37 And he's making his own lightning to find out.

00:04:40His office equipment--2 towering tesla coils that generate 19 million volts of electricity and temperatures of 11,000 leyh built the lab to study the effects lightning has on airplanes, homes, and vehicles, in the hopes of finding ways to make them safer when lightning strikes.

00:05:02

>> Lightning is an electrical discharge from the cloud to the whenever the cloud builds up to a particular voltage, anywhere from 100-300 million volts, some mechanism initiates a discharge that travels from it takes a tremendous amount of a single lightning strike, during the strike, would probably power the but only for a very short split-second of the nevada lightning lab is an effort to reproduce and study electrical anomalies that happen on a large scale.

00:05:39 Our goal is to recreate about 300 feet of an actual lightning strike.00:05:47 >> Leyh will now demonstrate the power of his machine.

00:05:51 Each time he turns it on, he hopes to get a step closer to understanding lightning's untamed fury.00:05:58 >> It's totally safe, as long as you stand in the right places.00:06:02 If you do the wrong thing, it could be very bad.

00:06:07 >> On go the coils, and the pressure of 19 million volts slowly builds in the air, just like lightning in a cloud.00:06:16 Imagine a spark plug which supplies an electrical charge to start a car's engine.00:06:20 The charged particles in the air slam together, igniting a spark, and a lightning bolt erupts.00:06:30 A small-scale model of what happens naturally outdoors.00:06:34 This experiment produces a 20-foot lightning bolt.00:06:38 Leyh is building a lab where he'll someday be able to trigger lightning 10 times that size.

00:06:44 >> For centuries people have dreamed about being able to hopefully, this will be the first practical attempt towards understanding how one might control lightning.

00:06:56>> Although greg leyh and elissa eastvedt have no knowledge or interest in g lightning as a weapon of war, once scientists crack the code of what triggers lightning, the military will certainly use it.

00:07:10 Triggering lightning, aiming the bolt, and doing it secretly-- some of the theory dates back 100 years to the legendary electrical inventor nikola tesla.

00:07:22>> Nikola tesla can probably be regarded as the founding father of directed energy weapons, and as such, may have laid the foundations for all sorts of weather modification and weather warfare strategies.

00:07:39 >> Nikola tesla was an eccentric genius and was widely seen as the great rival to thomas edison.

00:07:47 >> Around 1891, tesla invented a type of towering transformer coil still in use today to generate high-voltage currents for studying electricity.

00:08:00 It was tesla who developed alternating current, the electrical current that we use to power our homes and appliances.00:08:09 It was also tesla who put man on his quest to control the weather.

00:08:15 He developed a chilling theory for controlling the weather using extremely low-frequency waves, or elf waves.

00:08:22 If you've been to a rock concert and felt the low-frequency vibrations of the music pounding from the speakers, elf waves are similar to that.

00:08:32Elf waves are low level electrical currents that are discarded from electrical power lines, electrical wirings in our homes, even electrical equipment these are normally emitted at levels so low that they won't harm you.

00:08:47 Tesla theorized that if elf waves could be beamed into the ionosphere, in the upper reaches of the atmosphere, man could change the course of weather.

00:08:59 The elf waves would create heat, altering the molecular structure of the ionosphere, pushing it out into space.

00:09:08>> When you heat a certain region of the ionosphere, it literally pushes it up and and creates what would look like a column of space, and the lower atmosphere then rushes in to fill that space, and as it does, it changes the flow of jet streams within the region and pressure systems, and in that respect, it could manipulate weather.

00:09:26 >> What this means is the heated ionosphere acts like a giant dam, rerouting the path of the jet stream.00:09:33 The jet stream flows between 6 and 9 miles above the earth's surface and reaches speeds up to 300 miles per hour.

00:09:41>> The jet stream is a focused, high-velocity rope of air that moves billions of gallons of water around our world, like a giant river at 50,000, 60,000 it moves all the water around our world, for rain, for this is the lifeblood of planet earth.

00:10:05 >> Could tesla's theories help create a new generation of covert weather weapons?00:10:11 >> It was the russians that were creating this signal.00:10:14 >> Perhaps it's already here.00:10:18 Capturing the beauty of nature.00:10:20 That's my vision.00:10:21 Every day, transitions lenses are there to help care for my sight.00:10:25 Announcer: Transitions lenses adjust to changing light to reduce glare and help protect your

00:14:36strange unexplained blackouts in worldwide communications plagued the ham radio operators all are picking up seemingly random, unknown radio it's causing static interference with radio, television, and even telephone transmissions all across north america.

00:14:57 [Clicking] >> this signal was a tapping that would go for like 10 beats and then stop for a bit, then 10 beats and stop for a bit.00:15:08 scientists discovered the cryptic signal is coming ..the soviet union.00:15:16 They assign it an innocuous name.

00:15:18>> It was called the russian woodpecker because it was the russians that were creating this signal, and the sound that the ham operators heard was essentially that sort of clicking, pecking sound.

00:15:29 >> Here is an actual tape recording of the mysterious signal.00:15:33 [Clicking] satellite photos reveal the russians have secretly constructed a gigantic radio

transmitter and are covertly transmitting extremely low frequency waves, otherwise known as elf waves, into the atmosphere over north america.

00:15:51 The russians would continue beaming this signal until at least 1989, the last time they were detected.

00:15:58 But why?

00:16:02

>> The way the woodpecker worked was that you had a very large radar that was pumping out millions and millions of watts of radio frequency energy, and that tick, tick, tick, tick was each time a pulse was sent out, and in each one of those pulses there was a tremendous amount of what they were trying to do was to see our ballistic missiles coming up into space and on their way into the soviet union.

00:16:30 >> An over the horizon radar system meant to provide russia with an early warning of u.s.00:16:35 Missile launches is one possible explanation.00:16:39 But other researchers around the world now suspect something more sinister was at play.

00:16:46 >> At the times that the signal was coming through, there were some very bizarre things taking place.

00:16:53 >> In 1982, a report by ponte alleges the russian woodpecker's signal is actually creating layers of artificial ionization in the upperosphere.

00:17:03 Which means it could have been bending the jet stream and altering global wind patterns, just as nikola tesla had theorized nearly 100 years earlier.

00:17:13>> There's been a lot of research in military labs over what you can do with putting radio waves into the atmosphere and changing the dynamics of the and some of the research indicates that one can move the jet stream around and thus induce weather conditions.

00:17:35 >> Was the woodpecker yet another cold war weapon ?00:17:40 Turns out while the woodpecker was in operation, something very strange began happening.

00:17:45 From 1987 through 1992, california experienced the most severe drought in the state's crops and livestock food prices were people were scientists were baffled.

00:18:02>> Growing up in northern california, I remember this I remember just how scared everybody was because of how dry it was, how low the humidity was, and how easy the fires were started.

00:18:15 It was scary.

00:18:16>> Some researchers believe the cause of california's drought was a mysteriously stalled high-pressure system 800 miles off the state's coast, blocking the usual flow of moist pacific air from coming ashore-- an extremely unusual atmospheric this is the JET STREAM IN THE EARLY 1980s.

00:18:36 High-altitude winds gently pushing moisture towards the southwestern coast of the the arrows indicate winds blowing in an easterly direction.

00:18:47 But according to noaa, the national oceanic and atmospheric administration, between the years of 1988 and 1992, during the california drought, an anomaly occurs in the jet stream.

00:19:01The winds appear to change direction, blowing east to west instead of west to east, indicating the jet stream coming into the west is suddenly much weaker than normal, causing a drought.

00:19:14 By 1995, the jet stream returns the soviets deny any involvement in weather warfare.00:19:24 Still, believers feel the denial in fact, it's expected.00:19:31 >> One of the significant elements of weather warfare is the plausible deniability angle you

can't really attribute it to anyone at all because you don't know if it's just the weather or if it's some more sinister military application that you're being subjected to.

00:19:48 >> If you can trigger nature to do the work for you, you can raise covert wars, which our country and many others are famous for, and yet have the deniability that goes along with it.

00:20:00 >> Weather experts from noaa and from the national weather service can't explain why the jet stream anomaly occurred.00:20:07 Perhaps it's all just a part of mother nature's unpredictable ebbs and flows.00:20:13 Still, it's no coincidence that the united states began building its own mysterious array of

antennas in february of 1992.00:20:21 They are located in gakona, the project is called haarp.00:20:28 >> Haarp is the high-frequency active auroral research project, originally a joint effort of the

air force and navy in cooperation with a number of academic institutions.

00:20:37 >> It is today the world's largest radio broadcasting station, but it's not designed to broadcast for human ears.

00:20:43 It uses unique patented ability to focus the energy coming out of the antenna field and injects that energy into a spot at the very top of the atmosphere in a region called the ionosphere.

00:20:55>> Haarp is comprised of 180 antennas approximately 72 feet tall, linked together to function as one giant steerable steerable because it can aim millions of watts of elf waves into one tiny patch of the atmosphere.

00:21:14

>> The amount of energy we're 6 to give you an idea of what that is, the largest legal am radio station in north america is 50,000 haarp is 72,000 50,000-watt radio stations injecting their entire output into a spot that's about 12 miles across by about 2 1/2 miles deep by about 90 miles up.

00:21:40>> This is where haarp is it's an area located roughly 300 miles from military says haarp is merely being used to study the physical and electrical properties and behavior of the ionosphere, for both civilian and defense purposes.

00:21:57 But another theory has surfaced.

00:22:00 The intense energy being beamed into the sky by haarp is actually heating up the atmosphere, causing weather changes.

00:22:09 >> Haarp is being used for the military's own record proves it.00:22:13 They've admitted it within their and yet they still deny it to the public.

00:22:20 brooks agnew has researched elf wave technology for the past 30 years and is convinced haarp's effect on the ionosphere does alter the weather.

00:22:32>> Haarp couldn't affect the jet stream directly, but indirectly it could, because if you push the ionosphere out into space, then the stratosphere just under the ionosphere has to move to fill in that gap.

00:22:44 When it moves, it could pull the that's rerouting it hundreds of miles, changing the way water moves through our atmosphere.

00:22:55 agnew has devised a demonstration to show how haarp could manipulate the atmosphere.00:23:02 >> So, what we've done is we've got a cloud generator up here.00:23:05 It's an ultrasonic nebulizer.00:23:07 It's going to create real water particles just like you would find in a cloud.00:23:13 What we're seeing now is we're actually filling this chamber with microscopic water you can

see that it's almost completely filled with it's beginning to condense a little bit on the just so that you can see the detail, we've got a nice dense fog just like you were sitting inside a cloud at 50,000 feet.

00:23:34 >> At the bottom of the cloud agnew has constructed an elf wave transmitter, a miniature version of haarp.

00:23:44 >> We're only using 100 watts.00:23:45 It's perfectly safe.

00:23:48 agnew turns on the elf wave transmitter and begins shooting elf waves into the simulated cloud, the cloud begins to move up to the top of the chamber, taking the moisture with it.

00:24:03>> If you get down low enough, you can actually see a clear it is actually pushing these water particles up, and that's exactly what we've done is we've not only pushed the cloud off of the haarp antenna, but as you can see, our cloud is almost completely gone inside.

00:24:24 Haarp does exactly the same it ionizes the particles, pushes them out into space.00:24:31 >> Haarp is one of several elf wave transmitters located all over the globe.

00:24:36 The united states owns and operates 3 of them--one in gakona, alaska, another in fairbanks, alaska, and one in arecibo, puerto rico.

00:24:47 Russia has one in vseverzhsky near nizhniy novgorod.

00:24:51The european union has one near working in tandem, these transmitters could potentially alter the weather anywhere in the world, changing the jet stream's course entirely, triggering massive rainstorms even hurricane steering will be possible by heating up the atmosphere and building up high-pressure domes that can deflect or change the course of hurricanes.

00:25:19government is firm in its position that haarp is just an atmospheric research but is it more than coincidence than since going online, some experts have reported strange weather anomalies, including massive floods, hurricanes, and during times like these it seems like the world will never be the same.

00:26:29 But there is a light beginning to shine again.00:26:33 The spark began where it always begins.00:26:37 At a restaurant downtown.00:26:40 In a shop on main street.00:26:42 A factory around the corner.00:26:44 Entrepreneurs like these are the most powerful force in the economy.00:26:48 They drive change and they'll relentless push their businesses to innovate and connect.00:26:55 As we loo the future, they'll be there ahead of us, lights on, showing us the way forward.00:27:02 This is just the beginning of the reinvention of business.00:27:05 And while we're sure we don't know all the answers, we do know one thing for certain, we

want to help.00:27:18 Come see what the beginning looks like com

00:29:26>> Haarp went online in 1994, and construction continued until there are reportedly a total of 5 known ionospheric heaters, including haarp, in the there are possibly 20 other ionospheric heaters in existence all over the world.

00:29:45 There's no conclusive proof that any of them are being used as weather weapons, though they do have the ability to manipulate the ionosphere.00:29:53 And that brings us to something else.00:29:58 December 2001.00:30:00 Scientists at nasa's ames research center in palo alto, california, make a discovery.

00:30:07 In studying more than 100 earthquakes 0 or greater, they find that almost all of them are preceded by electrical disturbances in the ionosphere.00:30:18 Could there be a connection to haarp or a facility like it?

00:30:23 >> To say that haarp can artificially excite the ionosphere in such a way to cause an earthquake, well, it alarms me.

00:30:31 agnew experienced the power of elf waves firsthand BACK IN THE 1980s.

00:30:37 He was hired by an energy company to locate oil and gas using the same kind of elf waves at much lower frequencies to carry out his search.

00:30:46 It's a process called earth but during one agnew believes his use of haarp-like elf waves accidentally triggered an earthquake.

00:31:01

>> It was in the spring of 1987, which we arrived in roseburg, oregon, to use our elf technology to search for oil and setting up that day, we had a little bit different results than we expected, because the instant that we energized it, 5 richter scale earthquake that we were so amazed about what seemed to be cause we get to an area that has a high propensity for earthquakes, in an area known as the megathrust of the pacific northwest, we turn it on, and the earthquake occurs.

00:31:39 agnew demonstrates how he may have triggered the quake.

00:31:44

>> This is a scale model of what the area looked like in oregon when we scanned for oil and gas this strata right here represents the megathrust area the rock represents the potential energy set up in the ground from the what we're going to do is introduce elf waves and demonstrate that it can in fact trigger an earthquake.

00:32:09 agnew is using a stereo speaker to produce the elf waves needed for his demonstration.

00:32:15>> Elf waves, extremely low frequency waves, are just like a you can actually feel the vibrations elf waves are they vibrate the earth, and at right resonant frequencies they can have devastating effects.

00:32:34 >> When the spear is activated the elf waves begin to emit.

00:32:39 Tiny vibrations in the sand are detected, then a few seconds later, the rock representing the fault line shifts.00:32:50 >> As you can see, in a very few seconds, the resonant frequency built up in our model

released the potential energy in the rock, and that concussion on a real scale would have been felt these conditions are already set up in the all it takes is the activation energy to

make the this is a small scale, and we're only using 30 watts in this scale.

00:33:14 >> When haarp's broadcast array in gakona, alaska, sends pulses of elf waves into the ionosphere, the waves get reflected back down and pass through the earth and ocean.

00:33:25 6 million watts of elf waves were purposely or accidentally aimed at an already unstable fault line, it could, agnew, cause a tremendous earthquake.00:33:40 >> Looking at just simple instability, you know, what does it take to create an avalanche?00:33:44 A guy walking across an unstable what does it take to the right signal coming in when the pressures are already built up and they're at their threshold.00:33:55 That feather, or in our case, that hammer releases that energy.

00:34:00 >> Conspiracy theorists believe haarp is responsible for triggering earthquakes in enemy territories like iran, china, and rogue parts of afghanistan over the past 3 years.

00:34:14 But haarp's startling potential some say it's linked to a strange phenomenon occurring in our skies.

00:34:24 In recent years, peculiar cloud formations have been appearing in the skies all over the world, with increasing frequency.

00:34:32 >> I think most of us in north america have wondered at these flumes criss-crossing the sky in grid patterns, parallel rows, AND THE NOW FAMILIAR Xs.00:34:45 And many of us have wondered what these trails are.

00:34:49 >> While highly speculative, some researchers suggest these strange cloud formations are another agent of weather warfare.

00:34:58 They first appear to be simply contrails coming from high-flying jet airplanes.00:35:03 But these trails linger in the sky for many hours, some for even an entire day, forming an

artificial cloud.00:35:12 Some researchers refer to them as chemtrails.00:35:17 >> Chemtrails are deliberately air force tankers dispersing chemicals into the atmosphere.00:35:27 >> Will thomas has authored a book about chemtrails.

00:35:32 SINCE THE LATE 1990s, HE HAS Worked closely with another journalist in investigating these strange patterns that appear in the sky.

00:35:40>> We have an faa representative, in fact, a high government official, a person we came to call deep sky, attesting to the truth and the reality he described this program of spraying chemical trails at high altitudes in so-called commanded airspace, where commercial flights are routed around and beneath tanker airplanes belonging to the u.s. air force.

00:36:08>> The theory is that chemtrails are being used in conjunction by spraying metal oxides into the air above enemy skies, then directing elf waves from haarp to heat those metal oxides, the temperature of the sky is raised to more than 100 degrees fahrenheit, preventing the accumulation of water vapor that would otherwise form clouds and produce rainfall.

00:36:36 The elf waves haarp produces bounce off the ionosphere and are able to curve around the earth, over the horizon to the ground, making any point on the globe well within reach.

00:36:49 >> One of the dangers in spreading chemtrails is that it acts as a desiccant and further in other words, these chemical particulates can dry up the atmosphere and induce drought.

00:41:24 igF inal S O OITE CRITICAL ELEMENTS Of launching a weatherized battle is being able to control rain and unleash floods.

00:41:33 >> The military have had a keen interest in the weather there have been a number of times the military have actually succeeded in developing technology to use the weather.

00:41:44 >> In history, there is a chilling example of a flood that may have been accidentally triggered with a weather weapon.00:41:52 August 15, 1952.00:41:56 Near the small town of lynmouth, england, a massive rainstorm strikes. the river swells.00:42:03 Scores die.

00:42:05 >> It's estimated that 250 times as much rain fell in a period of 24 hours as normally fell in the entire month.00:42:17 >> The east lyn and west lyn rivers flood their banks.00:42:22 According to the bbc, 90 million tons of water sweep down into the town of lynmouth.00:42:29 >> 35 People were killed.

00:42:32 >> Bodies wash out to sea and trees are uprooted, forming dams behind bridges, creating walls of water that carry huge boulders into the village, destroying shops, hotels, and homes.

00:42:49Was this just a freak act of the prevailing theory is that it may have been a british military experiment gone bad, as they had been known to be conducting cloud-seeding tests around that same time.

00:43:03>> The british military would be experimenting with cloud-seeding for the same reason as any because if you can control the weather, if you can make it rain, um, you can have a profound effect on the battlefield.

00:43:24 >> Allegedly, earlier in the morning of august 15, 1952, some witnesses had reported seeing royal air force jets flying in the area, at times disappearing from sight high above the cloud bank.

00:43:38 Were they on a routine training or as some people speculate, were they dumping payloads of silver iodide into the clouds?

00:43:49 Silver iodide is one of the most common chemicals used for it forces the tiny ice crystals that make up the cloud to fuse together.

00:43:58 Once enough tiny ice crystals fuse together, they become heavy and fall to the earth in the form of rain.

00:44:07 And on that fateful day in august of 1952, rain fell in did the royal air force embark on daring cloud-seeding experiments without the public's knowledge?

00:44:21>> Some people reported seeing aircraft undertaking strange maneuvers, and it subsequently emerged that there was an experiment codenamed operation cumulus, which was indeed an attempt at weather modification.

00:44:40 Interestingly, many of the documents relating to operation cumulus have disappeared and are not available from the national archives.

00:44:52 >> A little over a decade later military conducted experiments to bring weather to the battlefield.00:45:00 October 1966.

00:45:03 The vietnam war is in full military scientists are devising a way to slow down enemy forces using the weather.

00:45:13had gone from adviser status to in-field combat status and were not doing as a result of not being able to make progress on the went to bringing the battle into the atmosphere above the battlefield.

00:45:32 >> The air force employed a groundbreaking military directive called project popeye.00:45:39 >> Project popeye was a weather modification program that and the idea was to produce or

exaggerate the monsoon rains that are traditional in that region.

00:45:51>> Experiments are carried out beforehand, with the military aircraft dropping silver iodide crystals in clouds over a strip of the laos panhandle east of bolaven plateau in the se khong river valley.

00:46:06 50 Cloud-seeding runs are 82% of the clouds seeded produce rain within a brief period.

00:46:15 >> So, project popeye then became operation popeye, and it became a proper military program during the vietnam war.00:46:24 >> The goal of operation popeye was to extend the monsoon season and create an inordinate

amount of rainfall by seeding clouds over the ho chi minh trail.

00:46:37>> The ho chi minh trail was the primary supply route by which the north vietnamese army really supplied its troops that were ..combat forces operating in south vietnam, as well as supplying the vietcong.

00:46:49So it was the most significant logistical center of gravity to the north vietnamese, and it was an important strategic objective for the united states and our ally south vietnam to try to interdict that supply line to cut off those supplies to the enemy.

00:47:05 >> Operation popeye's objectives are to soften road surfaces on the ho chi minh trail, cause landslides along roadways, and wash out river crossings.00:47:16 >> The military had their own catchphrase as a result of this program, and it was, "make

mud, " >> they flew over 2,600 missions from a period of 1966 to 1972.00:47:28 And it's believed that it did exacerbate the amount of rainfall and probably extended the

monsoon season by 30 to 45 days.00:47:38 >> It had limited success.00:47:40 They did succeed in generating they did succeed in turning the vietcong resupply route into a

quagmire of mud.00:47:48 It didn't slow them down a bit.00:47:50 They were bringing the stuff in on bicycles and they just slogged through the mud.00:47:56 >> Operation popeye showed that weather can be brought to the but can it also be

weaponized in the form some say it already has.00:48:07 >> Some people believe that katrina was weather warfare at its most potent.00:48:15 expert.00:48:15 ..00:48:16 ..00:48:17 Expert.00:48:18 A guru.00:48:19 How about wu?00:48:19 Wu will do.00:48:21 Where to?00:48:21 ..00:48:21 Peru.00:48:23 Vincent wu to katmandu.00:48:25 What's next?00:48:26 Timbuktu.00:48:27 Area code 212.00:48:29 So, timbuktu, katmandu, peru, and 212.00:48:32 All by half past 2:00.00:48:34 Not a problem.00:48:34 [ Female Announcer ] Need an expert? push a button.00:48:37 That's the human network effect.00:48:40 Learn more at cisco.com/newways.00:48:43 Phew!00:49:01 started to give people great, fresh beer.00:49:04 Oh, he insists upon quality.00:49:05 Everything's got to be a+.

00:50:54 Deaf, hard of hearing andpeople with speech DISABILITIES ACCESS www.sprintrelay.com.

00:52:07 >> Weather has been used on the battlefield with only limited but the technology is already here, paving the way for a bleak future once it's perfected.00:52:18 And some historians point to one haunting incident as proof.00:52:24 August 23, 2005.00:52:27 The national weather service is tracking an unassuming storm forming over the bahamas.00:52:34 A storm this size rarely damages buildings or even takes lives.00:52:39 In fact, at this point, it's simply known as tropical depression 12.00:52:45 But that will change.

00:52:48 It will unexpectedly grow into the mother of all storms, a category 5 hurricane, with winds up to 175 miles per it's named hurricane katrina.

00:53:06 When katrina slams into the gulf coast states, it will become one of the deadliest disasters in history, costing $81 billion in property damage and claiming more than 1,800 lives.00:53:22 Like other hurricanes of that era, katrina showed some very peculiar movements never before seen in a major hurricane.

00:53:31>> The 2005 hurricane season, there were some very amazing, there were some things that should not have one of the things was that many of the hurricane tracks were almost straight and hurricanes don't go in straight lines.

00:53:47 >> An ominous theory has surfaced that seems farfetched.00:53:52 >> There are some extremely sinister conspiracy theories circulating about hurricane some

people believe that katrina hit where it hit with the power that it struck because of russian or chinese weather control experiments.

00:54:10 >> Just before coming onshore, katrina did an abrupt 90-degree turn hard left and went

down the beach for a substantial distance so we have speculations that our enemies have been throwing we were being bombarded, attacked with the weather.

00:54:32 >> So far, there has been no most attribute katrina's path to the vagaries but it does illustrate the potential of such a weapon.

00:54:44 >> To control and direct a hurricane gives you power at least equivalent to nuclear a hurricane could be the ultimate weapon of war.

00:54:58 >> The very next year after katrina, something strange according to the national weather service, not a single hurricane made landfall in 2006.

00:55:10 military have been using haarp to fend off hurricane attacks?

00:55:16 An irregular high-pressure zone above the southeastern united states points to this conclusion, according to jerry smith.

00:55:24>> This high-pressure dome has it's never been seen to have a high-pressure dome parked over the southeastern united states for the entirety of a hurricane season. never happened before.

00:55:33But it's happened 3 years in a this high-pressure dome worked like the rubber bumpers and every hurricane, like a pinball, hit it and bounced off, safely the date coincidence of haarp being completed and this bumper being in effect I think is very telling.

00:55:56 >> Meteorologists say the high-pressure area is just a weather anomaly, one of many that occurs in nature.

00:56:03 But its intensity puzzles many meteorologists.

00:56:07 Is this the same type of manufactured high-pressure system that experts feel hovered over california from 1988 to 1992?

00:56:18 Today, nations still deny they are weaponizing weather.

00:56:22

But there are suggestions to the air force report graphically outlines the military's desire to exploit and manipulate the weather for the purposes of war by the year according to one of the most harrowing lines in this report, quote, "weather modification is a force multiplier with tremendous power that could be exploited across the full spectrum of " >> the 2025 report on weather was essentially a mililitary analysis of what could we do, whether it was to create rainfall, create drought the idea was, by 2025 we would be able to manipulate virtually every aspect of weather.

00:57:08 >> It expressly states how and why the united states air force should own the weather.00:57:15 What technologies will be necessary to fight future wars using weather as a weapon.

00:57:22>> The rationale for this is really, the ultimate war is if you never have to fire a round, nobody ever knew you had launched the fight, and this is what weather warfare offers militaries around the world.

00:57:36 >> With our deadline of 2025 quickly approaching, the future of weather warfare is cause for concern.

00:57:44 >> The worst-case scenario is that satellite-based weapons systems will turn the earth's it could rain in the desert, and you could have a heat wave in the arctic.

00:57:57 >> If an enemy could change the jetstream over north america, it could plunge north america into an ice age.

00:58:05>> 50 Years from now, geophysical manipulation of the planet could betheweapon of war, where it's not bombs and bullets, it's earthquakes, it's tidal waves, manipulation those become the future of warfare.

00:58:23>> When we talk about weather warfare, we are talking about this has nothing to do with enhancing the aim of weather warfare is catastrophic environmental destruction and horrific loss of life.

00:58:38 >> In the future, he who controls the weather will probably control the earth.

The ultimate war is, if you never have to shoot, no one will know that you were who undertookYou may already have been climatic attacks using weapons?Some people believe that Katrina was war at its maximum power climaticBut as we understand the extreme weather, to make it our best bet?Earthquakes, tidal waves, that is the future of warThis series investigates how the impossible is becoming possibleand what this might mean for the futureIf an enemy could change the direction of the jetstream in North America, could plunge into an ice ageweather warfareJuly 11, 2008Lightning researcher, Elissa Eastvedt is crouched in an underground bunkeron top of the Magdalena Mountains west of Socorro, New MexicoI'm in a room below ground, my roof is at ground level at the top of the mountainits mission, trigger and directing lightning at a target of your choiceThe goal of these experiments is really trying to decipher what causes lightningthere is much we do not understand about lightning, and one of the biggest questionsis what the beginning, which is the initiation processif there is much to understand about what happens during the flash,but as it starts, is still a mysterythe lightning occurs in thunderstorms when liquid ice particles collidevast building electric fields in cloudsbut what actually triggers is a mysteryElissa's experiment is not allowed to be caught on videoshe is in a protected underground chamber, shielded by layers of rockabout her is that she launched a rocket into the clouds of the stormis attached to a wire of about 1 mile long, anchored to the groundas clouds gather, Elissa will become the targetare trying to intercept a beam which anyway will manifest're looking at your monitor to make sure that the cloud conditions are optimal for lightning to be revealed somewhere near youyou want your rocket is in the air, so that the beam "decide" your rocket strikeand come to your instruments, instead of dropping it somewhere else close to you 27 00:02:37,009 -> 00:02:40,000 Elissa launches rocket after rocket, waiting for lightning "pique"trigger lightning is very close to win the lottery,can establish all necessary conditions, do all to the exact momentyou think is right, and yet, mistakesFinally, at 15:23, the sixth pitch, it happens

These are real imagesThe beam strikes the rocket ... million volts of electricitypressed through a white wire on the floor which measures datain the video, when shown the flash of lightning, you can see a bright and straight segmentand this segment is my rocket wireThe rocket is basically on top of wire segmentand that, you have the rest of the beamNow, imagine that this is the battlefieldand the target is an enemy tanka rocket can be launched on this tank, suspended wire,which can direct a beam directly into theElissa is doing this research for the institute of mining and technology of the Langmuir Laboratory in New Mexicowithout any deliberate military applicationbut once you know how to trigger lightning, make weapons would not be too farthe beam could be a devastating weapon to bring the modern battlefieldlocated among the most deadly natural phenomena known to man,a single beam can be extended more than 5 miles to more than 50,000 Fequivalent to 5 soleson the one hand, it certainly could kill large numbers of troopsbut much more importantly, could be shorted to sensitive electronic systemlocated in the heart of modern weapon systemsthe lightning strikes could cut radar systems, guidance systems unusablecould interfere with all sorts of computer softwareis difficult to imagine a better weapon climatic, the ability to shoot lightning at your enemies,There are key barriers to knock down to make weapons of lightning, torrential rains, even hurricanesis impossible as a whole, but to do this:1. the attacker must be able to "provoke" the weather when and where needed2. would have to be a way to locate the target, such as pointing the beam at an enemy installationand 3. technology would have to be "denied guilt"which means you never have to show a "fingerprint" that triggers the attackLaboratory Ray of Nevada, Greg Leyh also trying to figure out which is what triggered lightningand he is making to find their own lightningyour office equipment, two towers of the Scroll of Tesla that generate 19 million volts of electricityand temperatures of 11,000 F

Leyh construct the laboratory to study the effects of lightning on aircraft, houses and vehiclesand hopes to find ways to make them safer during lightning stormslightning is an electrical discharge from clouds to Earthalways when the clouds will increase to a specific voltage, ranging from 100 to 300 million volts,some mechanism initiates a discharge that travels from the clouds in the direction of the Earthis a tremendous amount of instantaneous power, one lightning strike, as it falls could power the entire western U.S.but only for a short period, a fraction of a secondray laboratory of Nevada is an effort to reproduce and study the electrical abnormalities that occur on a large scaleour goal is to recreate some 300 feet of a real beamLeyh now demonstrate the power of your machineevery time you turn it on, is one step closer to understanding the untamed fury of lightningis totally safe, as you scan in the right placesif you do wrong, it could be very badthere are scrolls, and the pressure of 19 million volts is built slowly in the airlike a lightning bolt of thunderImagine a candle that delivers an electrical charge to start a car enginecharged particles in the air come together violently, creating a spark, and a ray burstssmaller scale model of what happens naturally outside doorsThis experiment produces a beam of 20 feetLeyh is building a laboratory, where one day may trigger a flash 10 times greater than thisfor centuries, people have dreamed of being able to control lightningThis will be the first practical attempt to do so, directed toward understanding how to control lightningalthough Eastvedt Greg Leyh and Elissa http://transcriptvids.com/v3/xSnsLjOxsgs.html
