Future
Technology - Weather Control
Image from
nasaimages.org New satellites and high
tech measuring equipment are helping scientists and
researchers learn more about the weather patterns of the
earth. By mid century you can expect more accurate weather
predictions and eventually, controlling the weather
itself.
Governments
throughout the world are researching weather modification.
The obvious benefits of controlling local weather
would be to increase crop yields, decrease the severity of
storms, raining on my neighbor's loud barbecue. There
are also military uses, such as making sure the weather is
clear for a mission or covering the enemy with snow, fog,
hail or lightning strikes.
A far better use of weather modification
would be if we could someday stop a
hurricane like Katrina from ever reaching land. That would be a
future to behold.
