I wonder who “they” are in this case? The Jews with the space lasers?

    To a very low extent she’s somewhat correct. I’ll preface by say mtg is an idiot

    Cloud seeding is a thing where an aircrafct drops something into clouds and it somewhat adjusts the type of precipitation. And nasa has a machine that simulates extremely loud rockets and it shoots out a mix of hydrogen and oxygen “h2o?” and it creates a cloud that will actually rain. However this is only done in one place i know of and is somewhere in the middle of nowhere Mississippi.

    To what extent does mtg think weather can be controlled or created is the question and i imagine she’s implying we can steer a hurricane or send tornados to our enemies

      If you shoot a rocket into the air that contains a lot of water and then it rains that’s not really modifying the weather that’s just a very complicated sprinkler system.

        But it’s not a rocket that’s shot into the air. It’s almost like opening a massive flood gate with unimaginable psi. Then a cloud floats on up and creates rain.

        The machine is meant to mimic rocket launches so they can better be studied.

        No rockets are ever launched though

      Yeah, I’d say that they (an in governments or those with enough money+power) can influence the weather, but full control is still not possible
