The History of Cloud Seeding
From silver iodide experiments in 1946 to state-funded programs today — how deliberately altering weather went from fringe science to routine operation.
OBSERVATIONS · REPORTS · FIELD NOTES
A collection of observations, reports, timelines, research, and commentary on atmospheric activity, weather modification, aviation patterns, and environmental transparency.
From silver iodide experiments in 1946 to state-funded programs today — how deliberately altering weather went from fringe science to routine operation.
Why some aircraft fly in grids, loops, and parallel lines — and how to tell a survey pattern from ordinary traffic.
A country-by-country look at where weather modification is funded, regulated, or quietly underway.
A field guide to the shapes overhead: racetracks, parallel sweeps, and the repetition that asks to be noticed.
The instruments, the records, and the habits of attention behind a century of watching the sky.
The public and private networks that monitor what moves through the atmosphere — and the gaps between them.
