Chapter 650 The Miraculous Fish Rain

The development of science and technology, without destroying nature, ultimately aims to benefit mankind.

In fact, human research on typhoons goes far beyond this.

Typhoon is one of the most destructive natural disasters. A super typhoon of Category 15 is equivalent to a car traveling at a speed of 200 kilometers.

Every time a typhoon comes, humans have heard and witnessed its violent storms and overwhelming power.

When a Category 15 super typhoon hits a city, the damage caused by strong winds and heavy rains usually reaches hundreds of billions of dollars.

In the face of these super typhoons, mankind has never thought of sitting still and waiting for death since the beginning of the industrial revolution.

Since the beginning of the last century, some people have been proposing to blow up the typhoon with a megaton nuclear bomb, find ways to divert the typhoon, or prevent the typhoon from forming in the first place.

The beautiful country is a country with very advanced technology and is also hit by typhoons. Due to its special geographical location facing two oceans, the beautiful country is hit by several powerful typhoons almost every year.

In extreme cases, a typhoon can cost a beautiful country trillions of dollars in economic losses.

In order to avoid the attack of typhoons, many experts in the United States are discussing how to eliminate typhoons.

Especially since the debut of nuclear weapons, the call for nuclear platform wind has never stopped in beautiful countries.

As early as the 1950s, the beautiful country wanted to launch a megaton nuclear bomb into a typhoon.

Many people believed at the time that detonating a megaton nuclear weapon directly in the eye of the typhoon would blow away the warm air that powers the circulation, increase biometric pressure and prevent the storm from gathering more power.

But before the nuclear bomb was launched, scientists discovered a serious problem and urgently stopped the experiment.

Scientists have found that even if the typhoon can be successfully prevented, radioactive particles from the atomic bomb will be deposited in the clouds, which will pose a danger to other areas.

Even if the radioactive particles can be eliminated, the nuclear radiation left behind will directly harm humans.

So the nuclear bomb platform wind plan was just aborted.

In fact, luckily it was stopped.

Stopping a typhoon with a megaton nuclear weapon will have no effect at all, and the moment the nuclear bomb explodes, a large amount of air will not disappear.

The wind may weaken in a short period of time, but it will definitely form a stronger typhoon later.

Therefore, launching nuclear bombs will not only fail to stop the typhoon, but will actually make the typhoon more powerful.

There is a technology called cloud seeding, which is artificial rainfall.

There are two types of artificial rainfall, one will produce snow or ice and the other will produce rain.

In the last century, Beautiful Country conducted a Storm Fury project.

The project is also intended to weaken typhoons.

In several experiments, scientists sprayed typhoons with silver iodide, and then observed that the typhoons were significantly weakened. This effect seemed to be the first step for humans to prevent typhoons.

Further research showed that typhoon clouds contain very few ultra-cold water droplets.

Theoretically speaking, this method does not work. Generally speaking, typhoons will weaken even without human intervention. Therefore, in this experiment, the weakening of typhoons is just a coincidence.



The Stormfury project was canceled in 1983.

Many people believe that humankind's technological level has made great progress, but in the face of natural disasters, humankind's technological level is still far behind.

Just like weather forecasts, humans currently cannot achieve 100% accuracy.

Human beings want to control the wind and natural disasters, but it is currently impossible to do so.

Li Xuan's personal opinion is that although typhoons cannot be controlled, more funds can be invested in weather forecasting. As long as the accuracy of weather forecasts is improved, we can judge when disasters will come, so that there will be enough time to

With good defense, casualties and economic losses will definitely be reduced.

Just like this time Li Xuan was at sea and had long received the news that a typhoon was coming.

Li Xuan looked at the terrifying strong wind outside the window, feeling relieved in his heart.

If there had been no weather forecast, it would have been a completely different scene.

Li Xuan, Yang Hua, and Chen Bin stood in front of the window and looked at it for a while, then walked back to the table and sat down.

Chen Bin filled the cups for the three of them with beer, "It's a good thing to be able to sit here and drink. Come on, let's continue drinking. After drinking, we will sleep. When we fall asleep and the rain stops, we will sail back.

go home."

"really."

Li Xuan smiled and knocked on the table. The sea breeze was blowing outside, raindrops as big as beans hit the wall, and the windows crackled like firecrackers.

In such weather, it is indeed very pleasant to be able to hide in the house and drink.

Li Xuan picked up the wine glass and was about to drink it when he suddenly felt something was wrong.

Li Xuan raised his eyes and looked at the window again, "Why do I hear the sound of falling rain getting louder and louder, and the sound is a little different from just now."

Chen Bin said casually: "Maybe it's hail."

"That's not right." Li Xuan stood up.

"Bang!"

There was a loud noise from the window.

It was as if someone had used all their strength to slap the glass hard.

The sound frightened the three people in the room, and they all looked towards the window.

I saw a big fish more than half a meter long, smashed against the window, and then fell downstairs.

Immediately afterwards, the second, third, and countless sea fish fell from the sky.

"Damn it, Yu Yu." Chen Bin was dumbfounded.

Li Xuan was also dumbfounded. Li Xuan had only heard of Yuyu but had never seen it.

In our country, fish rain is very rare.

But among the many strange rains in the world, the number of fish rains is the largest.

Fish rain is a common sight in Britain, the United States and Australia.

Especially in Australia, fish rains occur so often that newspapers no longer want to publish such boring news.

Fish rain is very rare in my country and generally only exists in folklore. It is said that before the fish rain arrives, dark clouds roll in the sky and strong winds roar. After the strong storm lasts for about a while, thousands of live fish fall from the sky to the ground.

If you are lucky enough to meet someone, you can take home the fresh fish from the ground and cook it.

What seems like a fantasy does indeed exist.

Some countries even celebrate the Fish Rain Festival every year.

From California to the UK, there are constant reports of fishy rains, with small animals such as fish, frogs and snakes occasionally unexpectedly falling from the sky, sometimes miles away from the water.

Fish rain looks magical, but the actual formation process is not complicated.

Rapidly rotating seaspouts above the ocean may bring water and everything in the water into the clouds, and then carry them through strong winds, taking these fish to travel long distances and eventually land in other places, forming fish in various sizes and forms.

Strange fish rain.
