are passing clean air acts and going after known nano compounds like sulfur dioxide (SO ) and

nitrogen oxide (NO ). But what of other compounds falling from the sky and synergistically

reacting with everything from industry pollutants to ionized radiation?
What is more concerning is how quiet atmospheric chemists are about what they’re
discovering with their advanced aerosol mass spectrometry, particles-into-liquid samplers, and
cloud condensation nuclei counters regarding anthropogenic and biogenic releases impacting air
quality, human and environmental health, and regional climate. Sulfates spewed by coal-fired
power plants and nitrogen oxides emitted by vehicles mixing with oxygen is one thing, but what
happens when they interact with ubiquitous non-ionized wireless radiation? 108
Are chronic sub-lethal synergies transforming life as we’ve known it?
Meanwhile, space as a business model is taking off. Private corporations profiting from
Project Cloverleaf “climate change” ventures are launching private rockets from military and
private launch pads. For example, the U.S.-owned Rocket Lab in Auckland, Australia has its eye
on an Australian paddock with an excellent azimuth and launch trajectory and is planning to
create orbital rockets for less than US$5 million so that smaller companies, research and
environmental groups can launch their own satellites. 3D printers will spit out the engines, and
carbon fiber will make the bodies so lightweight that 1-meter rockets will be able to launch low-
earth orbit satellites with lifespans of five to seven years instead of 10,000 years.
For a mere $20 million, billionaire Elon Musk’s Space X (Space Exploration Technologies
Corporation) 109 delivered the first space tourist, multimillionaire Dennis Tito of the nonprofit
Inspiration Mars Foundation, to the International Space Station (ISS) in 2001. In January 2018,
Tito plans to be on the Mission for America to Mars, a modified SpaceX Dragon spacecraft to be
launched (given that Earth and Mars are in favorable positions) by a Falcon Heavy rocket. The
trip up and back will take 501 days. No mention of the Van Allen Radiation Belts impasse, 110
nor other pitfalls:
As the joint Russian-European Mars 500 experiment that recently ended proved, we are far from fully understanding
how individuals react to long-term isolation. Also, the impact of high-energy particles on the brain during long-
duration spaceflight are [sic] only just beginning to come to light. And then there’s the degradation of drugs in long-
duration spaceflight. And muscle atrophy. And bone wastage (you get the point). 111
Down below, as we ingest and inhale aluminum oxide and other toxic flotsam and jetsam,
rocket deliveries of “dusty plasma” are being laid in near-earth orbit to construct a Space Fence
“ring” around the equator. We will take a closer look at this in Chapter 6, “The ‘Star Wars’
Space Fence Rises Again.”
OCEAN DELIVERY SYSTEMS
Beside jet chemical trails and rocket flotsam and jetsam, cloud reflectivity modification
contributes to the 90 percent cloud cover over water necessary for geoengineering’s many
military operations. Between the High Seas Alliance and the UN Law of the Sea, two-thirds of
the world’s international waters lying outside national territories and economic zones—almost
half the planet—are being commandeered for geoengineering, as well. Moisture and weather
systems over oceans are grist for the mills of three ocean delivery systems: iron particulates,
marine brightening, and ship tracks.
