When Schumann first estimated the resonant frequency of the Schumann cavity, he used EM
                radiation pressures as a primary factor. Therefore, atmospheric pressures are a product of that
                EM radiation on the upper layers of the Ionosphere and convergence of air masses is created by
                    that EM potential. Some refer to these anomalies as Earth spots. Essentially, they are an
                 interface between the Ionosphere and Earth, which in turn creates a channel for discharge of
                EM energy. This phenomenon has been the study of weather modification scientists. The ability
                 to induce these ‘channels’ via satellite, air-, sea-, and ground-based facilities is the mission of
                                                 Full Spectrum Dominance.

               Satellites are invaluable to Space Fence operation.
                   A revolutionary technological shift occurred at the beginning of the third millennium C.E.
               that the public recognized only in terms of their televisions: analog systems were replaced by
               digital phased arrays. Individual transmitters and receivers (T/R modules) were recalibrated, and
               wideband performance was thus upgraded for dual-use military / civilian operations. The shift to
                                                                                                      47
               the  digital  means  a  computational  power  and  ability  to  store  on  the  scale  of  DNA   and
               represents  a  massive  expansion  of  “eyes  in  the  sky”  and  new  weapons  platforms  for  C4:
               “Multiple  radar,  communications,  and  electronic  warfare  functions  can  be  served  by  a  single
               antenna having such an architecture.” 48
                   Satellites  now  deliver  television,  computer,  and  iPhone  signals.  The  secretive  National
               Reconnaissance  Office  (NRO)  was  the  sole  launcher  of  satellites  until  1997  when  the  U.S.
               Commerce  Department  issued  licenses  to  nine  American  corporations  for  eleven  classes  of
               satellites  with  a  range  of  reconnaissance  (surveillance)  powers.  Today,  satellites  owned  by
               spooky  military  contractors  like  Boeing,  BAE  Systems,  Booz  Allen  Hamilton,  Northrop
               Grumman,  Lockheed  Martin,  L-3  Communications,  and  Science  Applications  International
               Corporation (SAIC) are vacuuming up images and communiqués from planet Earth inhabitants
               and  feeding  them  to  the  NRO—now  passing  responsibility  for  launch  codes  and  orbital
               parameters  to  the  Space  Fence—NASA,  the  National  Security  Agency  (NSA),  the  National
               Geospatial-Intelligence  Agency  (NGA),  U.S.  Geological  Survey  (USGS),  and  the  Pentagon’s
               Defense Counterintelligence and Human Intelligence Center (DCHC).

                     Currently the NRO has two types of spacecraft operating in these orbits: a series of communications satellites known
                     as Quasar or the Satellite Data System (SDS) and a fleet of SIGINT [signals intelligence] birds known as Trumpet. 49

                   Trumpets  replaced  the  Jumpseats  of  the  1970s,  and  orbits  are  still  either  Molniya  (highly
               elliptical)  or  geostationary.  Commercial  and  military  satellites  may  be  armed  with  NASA’s
               TWINS  magnetosphere  research  instruments  and  SBIRS  (space-based  infrared  system)  HEO
               (highly elliptical orbit) missile defense sensors.
                   Satellites have come a long way since the Soviet Sputnik in 1957 and the early 2000-watt
               geostationary (synchronous orbit) communications satellites tracking at a purported altitude of
               22,300 miles. Coaxial video lines delivering television network programs were abandoned in the
               1960s and 1970s, and cable systems of HBO, C-SPAN, and other providers began using satellite.
               The tax-paying public was slow to realize that high-tech satellites meant not just entertainment
               and news but increasing surveillance at home and that the airwaves were no longer theirs. Free
               TVRO systems with dishes homing in on satellite frequencies meant a television in every home
               and the usual profit schemes like scrambling cable signals with Macom’s DES algorithm to force
