Okay so, as the coordinator for a think tank which operates online, it makes sense that we would be engaged in problem-solving and one of the most challenging and vexing problems of humankind is that of natural disasters. We have major floods, hurricanes, typhoons, tornadoes, tsunamis, earthquakes, volcanoes, and so many more catastrophic calamities that can kill us at any time.Now that we're into the 2011 Atlantic Tropical Hurricane Season the topic of how to stop or steer a hurricane is now a popular question once again. But is it really possible to stop a hurricane? I mean that's a lot of force and power right?
Sure it is, and mankind can only hope to create that kind of power. If we knew how, we probably wouldn't have any problem creating all the electricity we need for our society and civilization, nor would we probably have to worry about fossil fuels I suppose. Well, I guess it goes without saying that being able to stop a hurricane is a lot harder than it looks or maybe we've come to believe that it is harder than it looks, and that's why we can't do it yet.
Nevertheless, I believe there is a way to steer a hurricane, perhaps away from shore, or to a location where it will make landfall in a less-than-populated area thus, saving humans from the horrible storm surges and insanely wicked winds. Recently there was an article in the science news about how aircraft near airports poking holes in the clouds caused more precipitation in the area or region.
Okay so, if that's true we can use this fact to steer a hurricane. Let me explain my concept here, because no one else is talking about this;
We could create unmanned aerial drones with swept wings, flying at a high angle of attack producing lots of wingtip vortices. This turbulence while flying through the clouds surrounding the hurricane will increase precipitation on that side of the hurricane. Yes there would always already be some precipitation, but this will increase it. Now then, we know which way the clouds are moving because they move in a circle around the eye of the hurricane.
We poke holes in the clouds as they move around and into position when we wish the clouds to drop the rain. As they drop the rain that water will block the trade winds which tend to diminish the effect of the hurricane. This will create a wall of precipitation, making the hurricane stronger on that side, and it will be lopsided on the other side and weaker.
Therefore it will steer towards its stronger side and wobble in the process, losing the continuity temporarily of its eye structure causing a transitional phase, which means it is slightly weakened during this time. I also believe we could poke holes using airborne lasers in a circular fashion to cause a similar action.
In fact, it may be possible to steer a hurricane around in a full circle, or in a figure 8 causing it to blow itself apart. You'd still get the rainfall and the energy of the storm, but you would get the high winds or storm surges which were focused, and cause the most damage. Indeed I hope you will please consider all this and think about.
