5G, and the Internet of Things (IoT) that goes with it, promises to give us more.

But more what?

Super-Fast Download Speeds 
5G and IoT promises to connect us in our homes, schools, workplaces, cities, parks and open spaces to over a trillion objects around the world. It promises cars that drive themselves, washing machines that order their own washing powder and softener plus of course super fast downloads and streaming.

According to Fortune.com 5G will support at least 100 billion devices and will be 10 to 100 times faster than current 4G technology. (4G was already about 10 times faster than 3G).

It’ll bring download speed up to 10 Gigabits per second. This would let us have an entire building of people send each other data in close to no time, thus improving productivity.

What is 5G?
5G offers mind-blowing data capabilities, practically unrestricted call volumes and near infinite data broadcast. It does this by 5G using largely untapped bandwidth of the millimeter wave (MMW), which is between 30GHz and 300GHz, as well as some lower and mid-range frequencies.

(AA) Youtuber MrMBB333 gives us a run down of today's weird and strange weather events including a giant lightning storm and two possible tornadoes in the Mid-west. Visit our WEATHER WATCH and SKY WATCH pages to follow weather and other anomalies in your area.

Have you ever looked up and spotted a long contrail extending across the sky? Have you ever  noticed that sometimes they disappear instantaneously or sometimes they spread out and create a cloud cover? Google the terms "Chemtrails" or "Geoengineering" and learn how many methods are used today to create or prevent certain weather patterns, with unknown consequence.

The document "Weather as a Force Multiplier - Owning the Weather by 2025" created for the United States Air Force by military officials outlines the use of weather for military applications: 

Video filmed on May 26, 2018 from Italy shows an unidentified flying object with a lighting tail flying close to the mighty mountains in Bolzano. Adding up the mystery quotient, the UFO which flew across the mountains without emitting any sound whatsoever. Moreover, the object had a bizarre shape, unlike any known military crafts.

This UFO was filmed by a man when he was on holiday in Bolzano Italy, Europe. It was early morning and he was standing on the porch of the hotel he was staying. He noticed an object hovering above the mighty mountains that enclose Bolzano. He decided to film the object since it did not seem to emit any sound at all. The witness filmed the object until it disappeared behind a mountain.

The video soon went viral on the net and has already racked up more than 160,000 views on YouTube. People who watched the video also put forward various theories explaining this mysterious sighting.

A YouTube user named 'MeT L Head' argued that the light in the backside of the craft indicates that the object is using anti-gravity technology.

"The light in the back has to be some sorta propulsion system. Still an anti-gravity object. I'm thinking man-made," commented MeT L Head.

On the other hand, skeptics claim that the object spotted in the video might be a helicopter.

"Looks like a helicopter, which COULD travel inclined like that and may well be unheard at distance with a lot of sounds absorbing mountains about. The light on the back is just a light defracted through moisture," commented Kale Wintermute, another YouTube user.

On the Big Island of Hawaii, where the Kilauea volcano has explosively erupted, there is a geothermal energy plant. It is the Puna Geothermal Venture (PGV) Plant, in Puna.
 
There is a long-running debate about whether PGV is fracking. The debate may be a matter of terminology, because in the geothermal process, as hawaiifracking.com reports, "...the drilling and the injection of cold water into hot rocks used in geothermal energy plants does fracture the rocks, which can induce earthquakes and through contamination of the atmosphere and water tables can affect our health and safety."

​Whether deep injection of fluid aims to capture oil, gas, or heat (geothermal), the beginning stage of the process is the same.
 
Earthquakes induced by this water-injection could obviously trigger a volcano.
 
For example, here is an alarming article about a geothermal project in Switzerland. Swissinfo.ch, December 10, 2009: "The authorities in canton Basel City say they will cancel a geothermal energy project, which three years ago caused minor tremors that damaged many buildings."
 
"A risk analysis study published on Thursday found that the danger of setting off more earthquakes was too great if drilling at the site resumed."
 
"The project was put on hold three years ago after thousands of claims for damage were filed with insurers. Total costs for the damage were around SFr9 million ($8.78 million)."
 
"The study, commissioned by the canton, concluded that Basel was 'unfavourable' for geothermal power generation."
 
"It said the resumption of Deep Heat Mining project and its operation over a 30-year period could set off around 200 tremors with a strength of up to 4.5 on the Richter Scale - in 2006, the quakes were about 3.4."

"This would result in damages up to SFr40 million."
 
"The Basel facility drilled five kilometres into the earth. The borehole was designed to be injected with water to capture the extreme heat. Back at the surface, the hot water - at a temperature of around 160° Celsius - would run a steam turbine coupled with a generator."
