Weather Control and National Strategy
20 May 2026 | ZEROGeoengineering.com | In 1960 Naval Commander William J. Kotsch wrote the following article advocating for U.S. government sponsored weather control. “Recent advances in the weather science demand the immediate establishment of a vigorous, comprehensive, and imaginative atmospheric research program under governmental sponsorship.” He warned of Soviet weather modification capabilities and potentially weaponizable weather, concluding that weather control could be initiated by an unfriendly nation, “with the victim-nations completely unaware that an “attack” had even been launched against them until it was far too late to stop.”
Though competition with the Soviet Union is a main theme of the article, it is important to examine history to see how federal agencies such as DARPA and NASA collaborated with the Soviets (and other foreign governments) on weather modification projects — see related materials below.
“Recent advances in the weather science demand the immediate establishment of a vigorous, comprehensive, and imaginative atmospheric research program under governmental sponsorship.”
It is even more remarkable that it has been only since July 1946 that mankind launched itself on a bold (though small-scale) and imaginative scientific program of weather modification and control.
In September 1958, it was announced by the U. S. Navy that it had successfully created and dissipated clouds at will in a series of scientific tests over the coasts of Georgia and Florida during the period 29–31 July 1958. The seeding agent which the Navy used was ordinary carbon black—soot.
To be sure, cloud seeding and small-scale weather modification are not the final answer to large-scale weather control.

The 1985 lecture includes information on electromagnetic weapon systems. In the final analysis Bearden stated, “In my opinion the Soviet Union has been waging a certain kind of undeclared war on the United States for a period of over two decades.”
