US To Test MOAB, *Mother of All Bombs* On Hurricanes

In an effort to combat the devastating effects of category 5 hurricanes, New Tech Spy has learned from well connected DoD sources, that the US Department of Homeland Security has teamed with the US Air Force, in a secret mission called “Operation Dark Sky”. Dark Sky’s purpose is to test the effectiveness of the newly developed MOAB fuel air explosive on the destructive eye wall of selected hurricanes, in an effort to disrupt the central core’s development and diminish its intensity. The program will begin this summer, primarily in the Gulf of Mexico, and extend through the 2006 hurricane season.

---The GBU-43/B (MOAB), “Mother of all bombs” was developed in the run-up to the Iraq war, but was never used in battle. The 21,000 pound fuel air bomb works by first dispersing an aerosol cloud of tritonal, which is then set off by a secondary explosion. The force of the explosion creates a massive pressure wave unlike that of any other conventional bomb, and makes it an ideal platform for US scientists to test on the different types of atmospheric conditions created in a hurricane.

---The initial program calls for five GBU-43’s to be dropped in 30 minute intervals on the leading eye wall of the hurricane. Specially modified C-130 aircraft will deliver the satellite-guided bombs in altitudes ranging from 8,000 to 30,000 feet, the effect will be measured by hurricane hunter planes and weather satellites. The secret operation will not be disclosed to the American people unless it is a complete success, but that might not be known for months or perhaps even years of study, which will certainly add to the intrigue and speculation surrounding “Dark Sky”, America’s big little secret.

Is this Cheney's idea of science?

most likely

war against mother nature, Bush: "I am the war President."

The mind once expanded by a new idea never returns to its' original size

While we're at it; why not set off a couple in the San Andreas fault? Curious to see if that scheme of Lex Luthor's would have worked out without 'outside interference'.

That's the stupidest idea I've seen come from an idiot in government in a LONG time (if true), and that's telling in the governmental stupidity department. They're essentially going to add a shitload of heat to a heat transfer engine. I pointed out a few months back when, I believe it was Neil, had a thread on this topic that it would either not work, and make the hurricane stronger, or at a much lower probability, work, and screw up the equatorial to polar energy transfer to the point that a Hypercane eventually forms from the excess heat buildup.

You screw with a planetary scale energy transfer system at the risk of making real a science fiction disaster matinee. Hopefully this is just BS, if not, buy raingear, pumps and +500 foot elevation realestate...

Government blows, and that which governs least blows least...

That's just a little too much to wrap around your mind this early in the morning...

The 'highest' elevation in Florida is 345 feet.

That would be what we would call a "Strong Sell" signal on the wrap thread if this was actually going to happen...
