This study is the story of rainmaking in Australia – from the first tentative experiments with dry ice to the present, large-scale operations using silver iodide as the seeding agent.

“Making clouds rain has been the subject of intensive research in several countries since the mid-40s. This study is the story of rainmaking in Australia – from the first tentative experiments with dry ice to the present, large-scale operations using silver iodide as the seeding agent. The film gives an account of the basic theory of cloud-seeding and outlines the techniques used in its practical application.”

“The major hazards encountered in the use and handling of silver iodide stem from its toxicologic properties. Toxic by all routes (ie, inhalation, ingestion, and dermal contact), exposure to this odorless, light yellow, crystalline substance may occur from its use in seeding clouds for rain-making…”

 

“Silver iodide may form explosive compounds with sodium, potassium, acetylene, ammonia, and hydrogen peroxide.”
