Bam Earthquake Prediction & Space Technology


predict an earthquake. The Bam cloud is an excellent example to show that an earthquake cloud does in fact come from the Earth.



Figure 4 Various Shapes of Earthquake Clouds Fig. 4 shows six different shapes of earthquake clouds, photographed by Shou from Pasadena (34.14 N, 118.14 W), California. Under each photo are the date and the direction Shou took the photo. The line-shaped cloud in Fig. 4.1 appeared suddenly like a launching rocket northwest of Pasadena, and predicted the 6.7 Northridge earthquake at 34.21N, 118.53W, in the same direction, on Jan. 17, 1994. The waveshaped cloud in Fig. 4.2 was from northwest to northeast, and predicted the 5.3 Northridge earthquake on Mar. 20, 1994. The line-shaped cloud in Fig. 4.3 appeared suddenly from northwest, and predicted the 7.1 Off Coast of Northern California earthquake at 40.40N, 125.68W on Sep. 1, 1994. The feather-shaped cloud in Fig. 4.4 from northwest to northeast predicted the 6.3 Off Coast of Oregon earthquake at 43.51N, 127.42W on Oct. 27, 1994. The lantern-shaped cloud in Fig.4.5 from northwest predicted the 6.8 Off Coast of Northern California earthquake at 40.55N, 125.53W on Feb. 19, 1995. The radiation-pattern-shaped cloud in Fig. 4.6 rising up from northeast predicted the 4.4 Joshua Tree earthquake at 34.59N, 116.28W, in the same direction, on Aug. 14, 1996. All these clouds were not described by meteorology (20), but the both wave-shaped and radiation-shaped clouds were denoted earthquake clouds by Chinese and Japanese scientists in 1979 (1).
