Rainmaker has raised $100M to become the world’s best lab for weather modification and atmospheric science. Thank you noa Upfront Ventures DCVC Lowercarbon Capital Dream Ventures and other visionary partners. We are aggressively hiring and scaling our research org to create a flywheel of atmospheric data collection, synthesis, understanding, and intervention. We will solve the weather and we will set the stage for the terraformation of Earth. More in my essay below.

Americans are innovators 60 million Americans need water from the Colorado River Cloud seeding is an American innovation that provides water to: - help our farmers and cattlemen - housing developments and industry - make ecosystems, like the Great Salt Lake, beautiful

Mankind has always been at the mercy of the weather. No longer. Rainmaker is the first company in history to routinely, unambiguously, modify the weather. Last quarter, we produced >143MM gallons of unambiguously man-made precipitation. Here’s how we do it 🧵

We can refill the Great Salt Lake. This month, Rainmaker began the largest cloud seeding project in modern American history. With Utah and Idaho, we are enhancing snowpack across 7,500 square miles of the Bear River Basin. Rainmaker Technology Corporation deployed a fleet of specialized cloud seeding drones, boutique meteorological sensors, and radar across the region. Our dozens of mountaineering Forward Operating Specialists, many of whom were born in Utah, are working around the clock with this hardware to do one thing: make snow. We do so not merely for better powder days at Rocky Mountain ski resorts. We're working to producing freshwater for over a million people in the region. Their farms, ranches, industry, and even their homes need more water. Due to decreasing natural precipitation and increased demand for water, the Great Salt Lake is in a deficit of ~400 billion gallons annually. If it continues to dry, not only will Utah and Idaho's economic growth stall and fall, but toxic arsenic particulate from the exposed lakebed will go airborne and cause asthma, bronchitis, and lung cancer throughout the region. Economizing water us is part of what it means to be a good steward of our God given resources, but reducing consumption alone will not suffice. We must make more water, so Rainmaker Technology Corporation will make more snow. With the research-grade radar, constellation of sensors, and 3rd party assessment from academic institutions, Rainmaker Technology Corporation is bringing rigor and physical measurement of our results that is unprecedented in operational cloud seeding history. Forecasting the weather is difficult, let alone modifying it, and we will face challenges throughout this winter. But, Rainmakers will work diligently and unrelentingly to bring water to the American people and environment across the Bear River Basin. And, we will continue to do so even after we have secured abundant freshwater for generations to come. As the season progresses, we'll update you on our progress. Thank you to our partners in Utah and Idaho, particularly the state meteorologist, Governor Cox , and Brad Little . Thank you to the Rainmakers (and their families!) that have worked so hard to standup this project. Blessing to work with you all. Lets make it snow.

And despite Americans inventing cloud seeding China is beating us. China spends hundreds of millions of $ per year on cloud seeding to provide water for their farms, forests and cities. Conspiracies should not deprive Americans of this tech and the water they deserve.

Today, DOGE Subcommittee held a closed-door hearing on weather modification. As the leading cloud seeding company in the US, Rainmaker would have loved to participate. Maybe next time! In the interim, some thoughts on the future of water and weather in America:

China has 40,000 staff in their weather modification office and explicit aspirations to become a weather superpower The question is not whether weather modification comes to pass The question is "who will steward and deploy this technology, America or China?" from One America News

Documentary recapping Rainmaker's historic accomplishment for the Great Salt Lake this past winter We are the first company to repeatedly prove we're making it snow The care, toil, and brilliance of our team was heroic But we still need more water, the jobs not finished

My testimony on Florida SB56 Cloud seeding is a safe and effective water supply tool Banning a technology with so much potential to help the world is like banning rocketry Regulations make sense, but a total ban deprives Florida from technology other states use
