Is That So?
Can A- and H-bombs affect
our weather?
Since the first atomic bomb
was exploded 11 years ago, hur
ricanes have moved up from the
Gulf coast of the U. S. to harass
New England; tornadoes have
multiplied from 300 in 1951 to
more than 800 in 1955: Europe
has gone through its most bitter
weather in a century; sections
of Spain have had their first
snow in 70 years; Holland has
suffered its worst floods in 500
years; and everyone living in
the west remembers last year's
unseasonable week of Nov. Il
ls. Although leading meterolo
gists (weather experts) have
stated that it is "highly unlike
ly" that atom bombs have
caused these aberrations, one of
the outstanding industrial chem
ists of our country, Dr. Irving
Bengelsdorf of General Electric
in a copyrighted article in The
Saturday Review, says that
there is a possiblity that some
thing something bad is being
done about the weather and
points a questioning finger at
the atomic explosions of the past
11 years.
Not that the atom bombs brew
the weather originally, any more
than the heat of a single match
can burn down a whole forest,
but that "the bomb may trigger
off evolving weather premature
ly or exaggerate the normal pro
portions of an existing storm."
Man's present knowledge of
weather mechanics, states Dr.
Bengelsdorf, is too limited to
justify saying it can't be so!
There are, he contends, several
observations which suggest that
A-bombs and H-bombs may very
well affect the dynamics of our
atmosphere and, of course, of
weather.
Chain Reactions
"There are chain reactions in
which a small single cause can
have an avalance effect," he
states. The damage inflicted on
a single gene by a lone x-ray
quantum and the leveling of a
huge forest by a small match are
examples of such phenomena.
"When applied to weather, the
introduction of a small cause, at
the right place and time, may
determine whether a hurricane
or a tornado is born or whether
a cloud will release its water-

content." In short, whether a
! rain may turn into a cloudburst,
a strong wind, a hurricane or
tornado.
Good and bad weather, he
states, are usualy attributed to
"high" and "low" pressure areas
which are caused by energy.
"From whence comes this
energy?" he asks, "The classic
reply," he answers, "is that it
comes from the sun and this
energy striking our earth's at
mosphere, causes winds to blow
and clouds to form, to move and
perhaps precipitate rain or snow.
However, he adds "the mechan
ics whereby solar energy is con
verted into our weather's antics
is not completely understood.
".We do know that when blasts
occur upon the sun's surface,
glowing streams of hydrogen
gas are thrown a hundred thou
sand miles into space, "This
same kind of radioactive gas is
loosed when an H-bomb is ex
ploded. Mere Pin Prick
"To be sure," he points out,
"The force of the biggest man
made bomb is a mere pin prick
in the atmosphere.
For example, the biggest solar
flare recorded to date, February
10 of this year, (already dis
cussed in some detail in this
column) exploded with the im
pact of 100 million H-bombs of
the 15 megaton type. And with
it, astronomers believe that 1
billion ton of radio-active debris
were thrown into space at 700
miles per second.
"But this stupendous event
occurred 93 million miles away.
When we calculate the energy
that would cross that immense
void and actually reach the
clouds over our head, we find it
to be the equivalent of only
l20th part of the force of a
single 15-megaton H-bomb ex
ploded in our own backyard of
sky." states Dr. Bengelsdorf.
We know that a high-altitude
jet stream rushes across the
earth up to 500 miles per hour
and it is quite within 12-48 hours
"triggering" storms or adding to
their intensity. And H-bombs
"fall out" may circulate in the
atmosphere for ten years or
more.
