In a process that sounds like it came straight out of a sci-fi movie, Supercar Blondie presenter, Sergi Galiano went up in a plane in the UAE to to set off flares and make it rain – literally.
Cloud seeding involves releasing salts, namely silver iodide and sodium chloride into the atmosphere.
This helps help moisture in clouds, allowing moisture droplets to grow bigger, and fall as rain.
Flares along the wing go off at the press of a button – hopefully boosting the 100mm of annual rainfall by 30 percent.
