SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
The microwave beam is primarily absorbed in the air and
thus will not be an issue on the ground. However, it will
generate clear air turbulence and also could have major
effects on the earth's weather. We are aware of the
tremendous issues involved and recommend that the
National Academy of Sciences recommendations for weather
modification research in response to global warming is
followed.
National Academy of Science Recommendations:
he National Academy of Science (NAS) has suggested the following guidelines for weather
mitigation
research. We intend to follow these guidelines in our research and development efforts.
1. Theoretical modeling and simulation analysis of the physics, chemistry and biology of the
relevant geophysical, geochemical, climate and ecological systems.
2. Study of potential for instability and chaos.
3. Small-scale mitigation experiments to determine physical, chemical and biological
properties where they are known.
4. Detailed design, development and cost analysis of deployment systems.
5. Study of related natural events to understand their relevant properties including the
statistics of their occurance.
6. Study of possible ecological, geophysical, geochemical and atmospheric effects, including
consideration of reversability.
