HALO MEASUREMENTS: INDEX OF REFRACTION (Edited May 29 2013)

Presented in this paper is a detailed analysis of a method for determining the index of refraction of materials in the sky that produce the halos being seen around the sun after aircraft activity observed recently. The trigonometric method presented allows the calculation of not only the index of refraction, but also the angle of the halo. The significance of this method is that the chemical and physical nature of ice, as well as historic measurements, establish what the index of refraction and the halo angular measurement should be. Measurements that deviate from the expected result inform us that the materials forming the aircraft-generated halos, cirrus and cirro-stratus cloud decks are no longer composed solely of ice as if often claimed. An actual calculation is performed, using a halo from a picture presented in this paper, and applying this method for determining the index of refraction and halo angle in the picture. The measurement calculation proves that the halo in the picture is not made up of only ice, refuting previous claims of the halo being only ice.

RAINFALL pH TEST REPORTS

This paper shows comparisons of average measured rainfall pH levels across many different areas in the US during the years 1990, 1999, and 2000. There are small differences in average rainfall pH levels across the nation when the years 1990 and 1999 are compared for each region measured, but the year 2000 shows significant increases in pH levels over both years 1990 and 1999, with some increases upwards of 73% in the year 2000 over earlier 1990 levels. This depicts a large change in atmospheric chemistry across many regions of the US in 2000 over earlier years.

USAF LT. COL. GIBSON EXTENDS LIE TO REP. FAZIO

This paper is the actual letter sent from USAF Lt. Colonel Gibson to Representative Fazio regarding the USAF’s official explanation of what aerosols really are. Lt. Col. Gibson sends a canned reply to an inquiry from Rep. Fazio explaining that aerosols are really condensation (contrails) that are harmless and normal, and that that aerosols are a hoax despite growing evidence of their existence.

AN APPROXIMATION

This paper validates the feasibility of aerosol cloud seeding operations in great detail, analyzing inputs such as air volume constraints, chemical concentration levels, particulate size, weight and size constraints of aircraft, number of aircraft employed, and the amount of time required to perform such as operation. Though not an exhaustive study, complex calculations are performed that lend credence to the argument that these aerosol programs, observed in the skies for many years, are quite possible.

“ORANGE MARKER” QUESTION

Over the course of several months, many individuals who participate on the www.carnicom.com chat board came to experience the unusual event whereby these individuals noticed bright orange fluorescent spots on their faces and especially in the nasal region while under only a black light. The material of these orange spots was found to be difficult to wash off, but could be extracted by squeezing the skin around the spots. Pictures of the materials removed are attached in this paper. It is desired to have people from the health profession to provide input as to any known nature of this phenomenon. As well, anyone with laboratory resources who can help identify this is encouraged to contact the Carnicom Institute.

GEL UNDER MICROSCOPE

Transparent gel that was sent in and discussed in a previous Carnicom paper named GEL FALLOUT REPORTS, dated April 24, 2000, is pictured and analyzed in this paper. There are three (3) recurring forms or objects that appear in each of three (3) separate slides that were prepared for viewing under a microscope: 1) an unidentified circular cell around 45 microns in diameter; 2) pine pollen, which is identical to the pine pollen found in the previous paper titled INQUIRY: RAINWATER ANALYSIS dated June 27, 2000; and 3) geometrically ribbed linear forms. Numerous pictures are attached to this paper for viewing.
SAMPLES REQUIRE IDENTIFICATION

SAMPLES REQUIRE IDENTIFICATION

Three separate samples that were collected in August 2000 are pictured and discussed in this paper. The first sample analyzed was sent in from Missouri and is a dark brown/black powdery substance, and is possibly a fungus. A microscope shows the substance to be made up of uniform spherical structures about 7 microns in diameter. The second substance discussed is a fibrous material that was found in a previous rainwater sample collected on June 26-27, 2000 in Santa Fe, New Mexico. When dried, these fibers appeared dendritic in nature, and under a microscope, they measured roughly 1 micron in diameter. The third substance is a material that appeared to have originated from the ground in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and is not believed to be related with aerial activity. This material, described as having a foam-like nature and a texture like ‘chocolate mousse’, is believed to be fungus related, though such a growth is not known to thrive in desert conditions in New Mexico. Input is welcome in determining what these substances are. Those with mycology or microbiology backgrounds are encouraged to respond to the Carnicom Institute.

ADDITIONAL BIOLOGICAL COMPONENTS IDENTIFIED

Microscopy stills are attached in this paper from fiber samples that had been previously evaluated in an earlier Carnicom paper named BIOLOGICAL COMPONENTS IDENTIFIED that was published on May 11, 2000. Though a portion of this same fiber sample was sent to EPA Administrator Carol M. Browner six months prior to this paper, to date, Ms. Browner refuses to identify the material in this sample.

CONTRADICTIONS

A contradiction is examined in this paper where, despite conditions being unfavorable to the formation of clouds, heavy aircraft spray activity in the morning hours in Santa Fe, New Mexico resulted in the classic formation of extensive cirrus-, cirrostratus-, and cirrocumulus ‘appearing’ cloud decks at a relative humidity of 36%. Six reliable sources, including researchers at NASA and NOAA, and Vincent Shaefer (inventor of cloud seeding in 1946), affirm that cloud formation is not expected to even begin below relative humidities of 70%. And yet repeatedly since the early part of 1999 such formation of cirrus - cirro-stratus - and cirrocumulus cloud decks are observed forming as a direct result of aircraft activity in conditions of extreme low humidity in the southwest desert.
