Scientists Unveil Plan to Mount Cannons on the Moon to Fight Climate Change
Dust Bunny
A team of astrophysicists is suggesting we could protect the Earth from global warming by shooting lunar dust into space to shade the Earth from sunlight, The Washington Post reports.
The Moonshot idea, as detailed in a new paper published this week in the journal PLOS Climate, would involve using massive cannons, mounted on the lunar surface, to launch dust that would eventually settle in orbit between the Sun and the Earth.
Shoot Out the Sun
It’s a new and intriguing interplanetary spin on the concept of solar geoengineering, the idea of shooting particles into the Earth’s stratosphere to shade the surface below, which has already proven highly controversial among scientists.
After all, they argue, we still have no idea what the outcome of such an invasive technique could be.
But the team behind the new paper argues that it’s still better than doing nothing.
“We cannot as humanity let go of our primary goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions here on our planet,” Ben Bromley, lead author and astrophysicist at the University of Utah, told the WaPo. “That’s got to be the first job.”
The researchers used computer simulations to see what vast quantities of lunar dust could do in orbit around the Earth. They found that the dust could cut sunlight back on the planet’s surface by one to two percent.
“Our idea is one — and it’s a very, very intensive one — to contribute to climate change mitigation, if we need more time here at home,” Bromley told the newspaper.
Space Parasol
It’s not the first time researchers have dreamed up space-based potential solutions to our climate woes. In 1989, for instance, scientists at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory suggested we could use a gigantic 1,250-mile glass shield to reflect the Sun’s rays.
Others have proposed using armies of tiny spacecraft to act as small sunshades, or even giant swarms of “space bubbles” to block out the Sun.
But using lunar dust, which already exists in abundance on the Moon, would be far more feasible than launching all of the materials from the Earth’s surface, a deceivingly simple idea that could allow us to keep our cool for a little longer.
“We really do focus on lunar dust, just plain old, as-it-is lunar dust, without any indication of changing its shape,” Bromley told the WaPo.
There really are scales over peoples eyes and grand delusions that make absolutely no sense to the rational mind and yet…here we are.
Brewer,
Hat Tip…
I forgot to say thanks for getting admin to post the [email protected] article. What a treasure trove of info she has put together.
My lead in to asking admin to post that was that you had turned me on to her substack. You are correct; a lot of information, well cited, and well documented, just like Karen Kingston’s stuff.
Are all science people psychos or just some?
No, they’re mercenaries. Science is utterly compromised:

Stupid is as stupid does.
Evil is as evil does.
And sometimes- as in this case- evil is as stupid does.
Stupid is evil as does.
Does evil stupid as is?

Where’s the Kaboom?
The Q-36 Explosive Space Modulator!
Delays! Delays!
That creature make me so angry!
Manned by Baby Finster & the Shropshire Slasher!
All this, and then early this morning I wake up abruptly to a large explosion less than a mile and a half away. Looks like the Kaboom was in my ‘hood.

Lol i guess they going to depend on the Russians or The China man to get them there.
No need to go to the moon (again…lol). The Chemtrails they’re currently using is more than enough.
Isn’t this exactly the problem with scientists … they can’t just do nothing, they dont get paid to do nothing.
Publish or perish. So they will literally publish any and all rubbish no matter where it rates on the scale of lunar.cy.
I suggest load them into that cannon and fire it toward the sun.
Bill Gates should see Charles Montgomery Burns’sun blocking technology:
Cannons on the Moon to stop global warming but they can’t cure male pattern baldness?
These fucking people suck.
Since when is male pattern baldness a disease?
Last time I checked, it separates the extremely weak-minded men from the real men with properly functioning brains who don’t worry about it.
If a woman has a problem with it, then she probably is a woman not worth the time of day.
I don’t get that that was the main point of what she was saying.
Says the man with male pattern baldness!
If only the masses would cure themselves of mass voting pattern madness.
Mass sweaty body pattern body sweatiness is getting Peter AND George upset!

Nuclear winter would work also, the best part is we can save money with all the infrastructure ready and in place.
And fewer peasants to feed afterward.
The upside of Neutron Bombs, it saves the buildings and infrastructure.
The downside?
They don’t actually exist.
They can’t even provide housing and safety to their citizens yet can entertain pipe dreams
Since when is it the job of socialist big-failure government paid soyentists to provide housing and safety for mentally defective sheeple who are too lazy and stupid to get a job to provide for themselves? Where is that in the Constitution?
It’s the job they claim for themselves – our keep – and the job we assign them.
Via reliably perennial mass compliance with their endless depredations.
I fear that our enourmous use of electricity might be acting as a “tractor beam” into space, drawing objects in space towards earth by the altered electrical state.
Our electrical usage, might possibly behave as an interstellar electromagnet and may be attracting an object which will be drawn into earth’s vicinity, and that object may be large enough to cause a catastrophic close pass or worse, a direct impact.
At the very least, our usage of electricity is causing a disturbance locally in our solar system.
Consider: Most electricity is used in daytime.
Which means the cumulative electrical torque of the planet always occurs on the day side of the earth.
By changing the electrical state of just one side of the planet we are either causing the earth to be drawn closer or pushed away from our orbital position around the sun. Also, we may be drawing our own moon closer, or pushing it away.
The electromagnetic torque may even be causing planet wobble.
_
If our solar system is tethered to the galaxy by a huge interstellar Birkeland current, our usage of electricity is affecting the universe in ways we apparently have never considered.
That’s right. Our electromagnetic “pollution” may have spread into deep space.

A very interesting new read I found that is relevant to my comment is Martian Grandpa:
Excerpt:
“South Pole of the Sun NASA reported electric currents in the “trillions” of amperes flowing out of the Sun. Their point might have been made even more effective if a term like “gazillions” had been employed. (A space probe cannot measure voltage directly but it can distinguish an electric field.) One problem was that Ulysses was unable to measure the absolute strength of those currents or, evidently, to interpret the direction of current flow.”
“These currents constituted the most important information to come out of the entire program, but NASA’s original claim that they flowed out of the Sun was made without supporting data. It was made to agree with the prevailing faith of astronomers. Eventually, NASA recognized that the direction of electron flow was into the Sun.”
__
The Energy Source of the Sun
“I shall return to those electric currents flowing into the Sun. I struggled to come up with an appropriate analogy and first described an ‘Amazon River’ of electricity entering each pole. The accompanying image provides a very rough size comparison of the Sun and Earth and it is clear from this that ‘Amazon River’ isn’t going to cut it. The polar coronal holes are shown at a plausible size, and if we divide the area of one of the polar coronal holes by the area of Earth’s equatorial disc, it fits about 10,000 times! Whatever purpose these electric currents might serve, their effect on the Sun has to be significant.”
“Electric currents entering the Sun fulfill two functions. The first is that they support the Sun against its collapse from the effect of gravity. The second is just as important: Einstein’s famous equation, E=mc2, shows that energy and matter are interchangeable, so a process should exist that will convert energy into matter. C2 (the speed of light squared) is a constant, so the essence of Einstein’s equation can be understood like this: E ↔ m, or this: a lot of energy is equivalent to a small amount of matter. One usually thinks of beginning with matter and ending up with energy, and the atomic bomb is an example of this. The equation works equally well in reverse, however, so we can begin with energy and end up with matter. There are naturally occurring processes in which this transformation takes place.”
“Electric currents entering the Sun’s Polar Regions produce such a strong electromagnetic field that electrons are converted into protons in the Photosphere, whose granulated structure may be a reflection of the individual cells in which this process occurs. The ratio of 1,836 electrons being equivalent to 1 proton, as has been determined at CERN, probably applies in the Sun as well, and in all of the stars, for their fuel is not continually being used up as is commonly supposed. A star can, however, become ‘unplugged’ from its electric circuit due to structural changes within the galaxy.”
“When inflowing energy becomes insufficient to maintain a sufficiently massive star against collapse due to gravity, thermonuclear activity in the core of the star takes place momentarily, resulting in a Supernova. If thermonuclear fusion were to take place in the core of our Sun, it would blow up as well. Astronomers claim that our Sun lacks sufficient mass to initiate a thermonuclear reaction by gravitational compression. Since their dogma also maintains that such a reaction already occurs in the Sun’s core, the faithful are required to overlook this detail.”
“The temperature of the interior of the Sun must be less than the temperature of its surface, as sunspots have a lower temperature than the rest of the Photosphere. In fact, the temperature at the center of the Sun may be less than the temperature at the center of the Earth. For decades, scientists have attempted to create magnetic vessels to contain thermonuclear fusion. This already takes place in the Sun’s corona, but not in its core.”
My thumb had to “walk 500 miles” to find the end of your Lollapalooza post.
What you posted tho….
Darned interesting to me.
So thanks for sharing.
These “scientists” don’t believe in this “mission” at all; they just see HUGE research grants…
publish or perish. Weird how they always publish with bait that is geared to catching the latest zeitgeist, climate change. Maybe in a few years it’ll be space aliens are causing climate change and we need to take up a holy war against the aliens.
Indeed:
My wife worked as a pharmatech in a drug store many moons ago, during the 90’s. She said you could always tell when the drugs salesmen came thru town. All of a sudden there would be tons of prescriptions turning up for the newest drug from the pushers.
Exactly. Two sides to every trade; takes two to tango. Don’t buy.
Nailed it.
It’s time for a large group of responsible accountable adults the take control and physically knock some common sense into these life long leftist parasites that keep coming up with these ridiculous destructive notions.
They are all truly a danger to humanity and if they are unapproachable with the use of common sense logic regarding cause and effect also the laws of unintended consequences.
Perhaps then a Louisville slugger to the back of the skull would be a defense mechanism for humanity to these egghead miscreants!
I prefer a sledgehammer to achieve the same results, because it is less likely to break.
But why should we argue about minor differences in applied tool usage?
Or simply withdraw consent to be governed at all.
only one major problem:
nobody has proven that this very short period of warming is:
1. valid,
2. deleterious,
3. not unnatural,
4. not unknown in prior geologic history.
other than that…
And to think…..this is from the ‘smart’ people
Like Smartwater, smart meters, Smartphones, SmartFood, smart cities . . . ?
They are the self-proclaimed “smart” people.
If you want to have some real fun, watch one try to deal with a flat tire on its sports car in a rest area on the interstate in South Carolina. It is a study in complete and total failure by a self-proclaimed university uneducated mental defect with an entire laundry list of “degrees and qualifications.” For instance, clockwise vs counterclockwise when removing lug nuts results in total confusion. Assuming you are first able to explain to the “smart” idiot when the massive number of degrees what a lug nut is and why a lug nut wrench is required to remove it to get the wheel off.
No wonder we have an entire snowflake generation of mental defects. Stupid teaches the stupid.
They stopped putting spare tires in many cars.
Claimed to save weight, but I think it is for the reasons you list. 1 in 100 have a clue that it is even possible to change a tire, never mind how it is done.
People are today, for the most part and in most situations, entirely useless.
A tire may only change itself, once it takes an honest, searching inventory of its flaws and resolves to improve its rubber footprint.
We admitted to ourselves that our track had become unmanageable . . .

CO2 is not a pollutant. Articles like this further reduce my respect (already minimal) of any ‘climate research scientist’ using ‘computer simulations’ at any ‘University’.
Greenazis just don’t grok that CO2 is green-plant food.
CO2 is plant food. Corn chow. Tree fertilizer.
I’m wondering if I could publish a paper, after all I am an expert in Allology. I purpose that my method of controlling climate by blocking the Suns harmful rays as follows.
Rounding up all the politicals and lawyers
Feed said politicals and lawyers thru a homogenizer, wood chipper in laymans terms.
Buy a lot of barroons from china and load them with the homogenized Sun blocking particulate.
Once barroon reaches peak altitude set off small explosive charge.
Resulting particulate spread should block the Suns evil rays and result in nice even temperature days.
Worth a try as least. Better than doing nothing imo.
ADDED: At the very least we should vote on it.
Upvote – Lets do it
Downvote – to risky spreading that shit out like that
Ah! now I finally understand: Chinese barroons, when popped, go barroom.
Ah-so, honowabre a-Chinese
a-bizinissman. undewstand.
Psychopaths.
Narcissists
Narcopaths.

Interesting. I’d always labored under the misinformation that a narcopath was the Mexican drug cartels’ delivery conduit.
This same scheme was proposed by climate soyentists back in the 1970s to stop the then being pushed coming ice age. The one that was supposed to bury my house under a mile thick slab of ice by 2000.
And DDT would mostly eradicate malaria mosquitoes, saving uncounted human lives – but let’s save some birds and mosquitoes and kill the humans.
Have you met humans?
These lunatic greenies won’t quit until they’ve created the climactic catastrophe that they’ve only imagined.
Self-fulfilling catastrophe prophesy.
When I was seven years old I had a friend who was highly intelligent and had these kinds of ideas…we tolerated him and found it funny, I always wondered what happened to him.
He’s getting the last laugh.
Do you suppose they’ve considered how to go about removing the dust from the atmosphere after they’ve turned Earth into an ice planet like Pluto? Nah! We’ll cross that bridge when we get to it.
More studies after the fact. Then they’ll suggest equally outrageous ‘solutions’.
Rinse and repeat.
And the masses will trust the science.
Again.
Dust for brains is the problem
“Nuclear winter.” How wonderful. As if nobody learned anything from the eruptions of Tonga, Vesuvius, Krakatoa, etc.
What we need to do is put all our congress critters (except for Rand Paul & maybe a few more), all WEF members, Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, all CDC people, Fauci, all WHO people, all Pfizer execs, all Monsanto execs, & the Amazon guy on an Elon Musk ship, and fire it straight into the Sun.
There was a science writer that pushed the idea that we might ” solve ” pollution by detonating atom bombs around Earths equator. The mushroom clouds would suck the pollution into the the upper atmosphere and into space, forming a Saturn like ring.
It may have been the population doom guy Paul Earlich.
Anyway , we are headed into a mini-ice age by 2050 , and are at Solar cycle called ‘ Maunder Minimum ‘ …. less solar output for a while.
Do you remember in The Matrix movie , when Morphius tells Neo , humans tried to ‘ dim-the-sky ‘ to fight the machines. It backfired.
Holy sh#t, there is no limit to the madness and greed of these people…
Imagine removing enough mass from the moon to the point it effects the fine balance between it’s mass and it’s orbit. The moon zips out into deep space and no more tides, killing the oceans, or the moon plunges to the erf.
It’s not cannons, it’s just cannon.
These radical environmental extremists have shown their true colors again and again … they hate the human race and want to see it destroyed — period.
” As we were searching for a new enemy to ‘ unite ‘ us , we came up with the idea that pollution , global warming , water shortages , FAMINE and the like would fit the bill ”
