Chinese scientists have claimed to have made a groundbreaking discovery using what is currently regarded as the world’s most powerful radar system. This system allows them to simultaneously detect equatorial plasma bubbles (EPB) over the Egyptian pyramids and the Midway Islands in the Pacific Ocean.

This development positions China as a leader in ionospheric research, and the country is now the first in the world to track such anomalies in real-time, according to Chinese media claims.

The radar, known as the Low Latitude Long Range Ionospheric Radar (LARID), was developed by the Institute of Geology and Geophysics under the Chinese Academy of Sciences and was installed last year.

It has the unique ability to detect plasma bubbles, “an anomalous weather phenomenon” that can disrupt satellite communications and GPS systems by interfering with the ionosphere — the part of Earth’s upper atmosphere populated by charged particles.

I would not want to live anywhere near that radar.

That's a no shitter, it should be able to cook a microwave meal for a city of 100,000 in three minutes.

A 10k km range is 6200 mile range, which is almost 25% of the earths circumference. And that is just one way so if it's to be believed, a full 360 degree sweep would cover almost half the planet.

Think of those out past Deneb trying to enjoy the latest "My Three Sons" episode, like an AM radio playing in a thunderstorm.

Good lord ghostrider, it has scarcely been a fortnight since we last conversed.

I had a weird Don DeVoe thing going. "Family Affair" opening credits freaked me out. Too Manson...
