Obama’s October Surprise – Creating and Steering Hurricane Sandy
http://www.datehookup.com/Thread-1046451.htm
The US government is using the HAARP Sea-Based X-Band Radar (SBX) platform to
intensify and steer the man made Hurricane Sandy. Hurricane Sandy is Obama’s
October surprise – create and steer a hurricane and cause mass destruction. The
US Air Force / Navy SBX is steering Hurricane Sandy into New York City.
This isn’t the first time the US government steered a hurricane into a major US
city. In 2005 they (George W Bush and D*ck Cheney) successfully steered
Hurricane Katrina into New Orleans. In 2010 NASA successfully intensified
Tropical Depression Earl into a Category 4 Hurricane and steered (controlled its
path) Hurricane Earl for 11 days in Project GRIP (Genesis and Rapid
Intensification Processes).
On August 11, 2010 NASA announced that it was less than 2 weeks away from
initiating Project GRIP (Genesis and Rapid Intensification Processes) – their
quest for the holy grail of hurricane research. Project GRIP discovered the
exact conditions required to kickstart a tropical depression into a hurricane.
Scientists already knew how hurricanes develop and how to steer them but NASA
wanted to perfect the processes that intensifies depressions to form into very
intense, spinning storms of mass destruction. NASA was creating a weather
modification weapon of mass destruction.
“Hurricane formation and intensification is really the ‘holy grail’ of this
field,” said Ed Zipser, an atmospheric scientist at the University of Utah and
one of three program scientists helping to lead the Genesis and Rapid
Intensification Processes (GRIP)Project.
“We want to see storms that become hurricanes, and we want to see some that
don’t become hurricanes, so we can compare the data. The same is true for
hurricane intensification.” ~
GRIP Project Manager Marilyn Vasques
NASA used various weather modifying technology to develop, intensify and steer a
hurricane. The available technology included a powerful microwave radiometer and
a “radar” and a NASA-designed and built lidar (laser radar). The laser radar
were mounted on a Global Hawks and were used to heat the top of a hurricane – to
weaken a hurricane and steer them. The “radar” that NASA used was the Sea-Based
X-Band Radar - a floating, self-propelled, military controlled and operated
mobile radar station capable of operating in high winds and heavy seas. The
Sea-Based X-Band Radar Platform (SBX) is part of the U.S. Defense Department
Ballistic Missile Defense System.
The Sea Based X-Band Radar is the world’s largest floating phased array X-band
radar. It is operated by the US Department of Defense (Missile Defense Agency)
and its movement and location is classified. In 2005 it was engaged in a 52-day
deployment in the Gulf where it completed more than 100 major test activities.
The 52-day deployment started in late August and ended on Oct. 14, 2005.
Air Force Lt. Gen. Henry “Trey” Obering, director of the MDA, said it had
demonstrated the ability to achieve most of its major operational and
sustainment capabilities. SBX was in the Gulf at the same time as Hurricane
Katrina formed on August 23, 2005. On Saturday, August 27, 2005 the storm
reached Category 3 intensity on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale, becoming the
third major hurricane of the season. An eyewall replacement cycle disrupted the
intensification, but caused the storm to nearly double in size. Katrina again
rapidly intensified, attaining Category 5 status on the morning of August 28 and
reached its peak strength at 1:00 p.m. CDT that day, with maximum sustained
winds of 175 mph (280 km/h) and a minimum central pressure of 902 mbar.
The Department of Homeland Security’s Science and Technology Directorate, which
direct agencies from the Federal Emergency Management Agency to Immigration and
Customs Enforcement, expressed major interest in the science of hurricane
modification. “It sounds kind of crazy and science fiction-ish, but it’s really
the direction we need to go in,” Chris Doyle, head of DHS’s science and
technology research division, told a conference of the American Meteorological
Society in May of 2008.
Hurricane researcher Joseph Golden, a veteran of Project Stormfury, the federal
government’s last attempt at militarized weather modification in the 1960s,
organized a meeting of scientists at an interdepartmental hurricane conference
to discuss weather modification.
They discussed how hurricane steering could be used as a geopolitical tool. The
major question of the conference was “Where would scientists direct a storm”?
Toward a less populated area or into major metropolitan areas? Steering a
hurricane into small communities could wipe them out financially. Steering a
hurricane into a farming community could wipe out crops. Steering a hurricane
into a major city could cripple it for days, weeks or even years (Hurricane
Katrina) and result in significant loss of life. Like Project Stormfury they
were discussing how steering hurricanes could be used a geopolitical weapon."
