High-Altitude Electromagnetic Pulse (HEMP): Potential Impacts, and EPRI Research Approach
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 вер 2024
- High-altitude electromagnetic pulse (HEMP) refers to the electromagnetic pulse that is created by the high-altitude detonation of a nuclear weapon. Numerous stakeholders assert that a HEMP attack is probable, and its impact would be catastrophic to the power system infrastructure. However, a science-based approach is needed to assess the true impact of this threat. To address this gap, EPRI has developed a comprehensive research plan that will be carried out over a three-year period. This video provides an overview of science of high-altitude electromagnetic pulses and EPRI’s three-year research plan.
Nicely done. It has been three years, could you make a followup video and let us know where you are. I feel we all are stakeholders in this crytical area.
A bunch of terrorists can just walk across the border then smash your transformers and power stations. Updated 2021 edition.
Yep, My friend working, testing electronics for the government and military for +30 years said some electronic equipment will be taken out, not the majority of it. But hair-um scare-um sales. Sales are important 👌😁
He had emp, reactor and lighting machine sources testing tanks, rockets Humvees, radios. Most still worked.
The thing about this video, is, it states utterly devastating facts, but sounds absolutely neutral the whole time. A lay person could listen to it, and think, there's nothing to worry about, all the while the narrator is explaining the exact, most devastating, reality as being possible.
I realize this comment was made a while ago, but I don't fully agree with this, actually whatsoever. Despite what today's modern media and emotion-based society wants to believe, while it is important to recognize the emotional and devastating impact factors of course, this is the way you are supposed to display factual information without it being clouded by subjective information and emotional baggage. Information is and has always been at its best when it is displayed honestly and as a matter of fact, or at least with statistics and evidence rather than using manipulative emotion grabbing language pulls. While of course at least having some emotional tone in your voice, or at least not being monotone, definitely helps keep interest in the topic, providing emotion only usually serves to rile people up or scare them off, which only helps in very particular situations. If someone walks away thinking that, that's unfortunate but their choice, using emotions to rally them up against such a possibility or making them paranoid about it, which are the two primary alternatives regardless of intent, only make situations like this worse and information more likely to be spread more quickly yet far less accurately.
@@genozp2328 I'm not sure what you're disagreeing with specifically. I agree that information should be conveyed in this way (a neutral manner). I didn't mean to imply the video should be radical.
@@nullins, ah, apologies, I must have either misinterpreted what you had meant or exaggerate what you said beyond what it was intended. If so, it either case, my apologies. It seemed to me that you were implying the video should have contained more inflection or emotional pull to make it more obviously conveying it's information, which would typically extend more to a inadvertent or subliminal message when appealing to emotion.
In hindsight, I do agree with you on what you said as well, the video was said in a very monotone and matter of fact manner where someone none the wiser could listen to it, gloss over it, and continue with little thought, whereas if it was stated with more emotion and inflection in individual could feel the devastating horror of the possibilities of the video is describing.
For some reason in my head I had exaggerated that too be implying that the way it was stated was incorrect, when that is actually also just a matter of fact point to be made. The unfortunate part about relaying information logically is that some people more emotionally grounded may not take it seriously without emotional appeal. Whereas information conveyed through various emotions and inflection would often spark fear, joy, and typically some other radicalized emotion the speaker is attempting to convey or sway. Unfortunate as the first option may be with some people not taking it seriously, it is certainly factually the better way of conveying information and deterring the alternative radical paranoia.
😅It's at this point when talk texting where I realize I am basically just rambling. My apologies, I apparently exaggerated what you had said to mean more than what it was saying, because I'm face value and likely what you meant was exactly what it is.
Finally a professional information about this phenomenon !!
We verified the computer code now on ‘GitHub.com’ for 6448 volts/meter at github.com/LAGridCoalition, and a partial proof of 50,000 V/m & an indication of 100,000 V/m - at github.com/drforbin/EEMP-MODELING -Subject is High Altitude - ElectroMagnetic Pulse & Nuclear Physics: Also a New - Digital Library for "HEMP" & as PDFs - is now available at - github.com/LAGridCoalition/HEMP-document-library The Louisiana Grid Coalition members have done this work.
Why would you believe that! It's nonsense.
This guy is bullshit. We will be devastated.
Sorry, no. These guys are paid for by the electric industry. Retrofitting everything for an emp would be very very very expensive. michaelmabee.info/epri-emp-report/
@@tribalismblindsthembutnoty124 Id rather spend more now, than having to spend the money replacing everything that gets damaged every single time.
I dreamt that an emp went off and the white light of it engulfed everything and myself. Apon this happening I woke up immediately. My family and I had to move not long after into a different apartment and upon stepping into the bathroom of the new apartment I realized it was the place from my dream of which the EMP happened. Was pretty terrifying to look out the window and see everything as it were in that dream. I literally live ON the Canadian border to St. Stephen's Canada. The bridge is just a walk down Main Street to cross over to Canada
S[t]even Day I had a dream last night and I believe it was about an emp. I was in my car and trying to hit the gas to take a left turn but my car was slowing down as if the battery was draining. I then saw everything around me go dark. I didn’t see a glow of light but I heard a rumble and saw an energy ring from the blast. It slammed into me and I was pushed into a building where I just knew I was going to die. I have not just recently learned of emps and it’s not something that has been on my mind. I had to refresh myself on the subject this morning.
If this happens,it may be better than us living as B.Gates' mind/body controlled puppets...just sayin.
@@suzycreamcheeze000 or this will happen, then will be rebooted with the bill Gates chips :/ FUCT at that point
@@thisguy6278 im gonna be fucked anyway cus i aint doin it...at least not compliantly.
Are you still in that apartment?
Can you imagine living in fear constantly. Don't worry about what you have no control over. When it's your time it's your time.
Its not about living in fear, its about being prepared for worst case scenario
thats the whole point.
@@killer2miller23 lol. prepared...yeah.
Who else had this recommended today??🤔
It is insane that the proposed study was not completed and published by the DOD fifty years ago. And then kept up to date.
You assume you are privy to that knowledge
@@brosifstalin415 About 50 years ago was in a staff position in the Air Force where I should have been privy to that knowledge.
@@stevenneuberger4323 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 nah my man, nah. It's not 50 years ago.
Well done presentation, but it's several years now and even a partial report on the findings and current state of mitigation is due. The increased threats from North Korea (showing ICBM launch capability recently) and the possible and unpredictable actions of Iran give us heightened concerns. Actions in Ukraine are newsworthy, but not at the magnitude of more suicidal countries that are far less rational than Putin. The grid info isn't covered well in any other video I've seen. While somewhat our of scope here, the level of expected coupling through roadside transformers to the customer would be welcome. There is info on lightning and surge protection, but high altitude event levels aren't very clear.
That's because Lord Biden doesn't want you to know the truth...you're too stupid.... You'll just have to trust that his holiness will take care of you after you've been turned into a french fry. 🐑☠️
So basically if a emp was lunched in the middle of the country wouldn't that mean all of our power would be cut off?
EMP discussion by USAF # AD 777841.PDF by Terry C. Chapman is accomplished. We had 3 PhDs that recreated the original FORTRAN coding. It is 73 pages of details of an EMP event. We verified the computer code now on ‘GitHub.com’ for 6448 volts/meter at github.com/LAGridCoalition,
The best HOB is 75 KM above the earth. A high Gamma ray causes free electrons in the Oxygen and Nitrogen molecules and via the Compton effect a DC pulse of about 50,000 volts per meter acts on any material that "acts as an antennae" including your cell phone. www.lagridcoalition.org - Henry Newton is a Prof. Engineer - IEEE -
What is classified as classified science? And who is in charge of classifying it? Can someone give an example of classified science?
The science that has to do with nukes. For example if you are creating a thermonuclear bomb (H-bomb) of certain sizes, certain components, arranged a certain way, detonated in a certain way you can expect a certain size explosion (boom). Today they simulate these explosions on computers. The science around this whole area is classified as secret or above. They don't want other governments to make them. An example of unclassified science is the reaction of vinegar and bicarbonate of soda. We know from atomic tests in the Pacific that an EMP exists and the effects were felt in Hawaii. Back then we weren't using semi-conductors so it for the most part didn't matter. They could take it. The fear is today electronics can't handle that kind of power. A traffic light back then had 110 power, relays, mechanical timers. Cars had points/magneto ignition. All of that stuff was very sturdy. Today a computer works at a fraction of that power.
It’s classified. So, no.
Flat Stationary Earth , Hydroelectric Power . etc .
@@QuaaludeCharlie flat earth is fake I don’t care what your Bible says, the Koran says it’s round if u wanna bring up religion. Also look up the invention secrecy act
@CIA,DOE,NSA,DOD, & Research Institutes test on You Can anyone do anything about it ?? And how
Excellent Explanatory Presentation.
We, as a media-centered viewership think that Hollywood Knows All, as in L.A. getting nuked in the Terminator movie, which was basically a Hiroshima/Nagasaki Remake.
Continental United States losing its entire Internet, phone & computer assets will cause extreme anxiety & panic with the resulting chaos.

TO those who listen to this "official" report...be careful as to the bias of the investigation.."follow the money"
"In other words, EPRI is bought and paid for by the electric utility industry. There is nothing inherently wrong with that (the industry’s actual lobbying organization-the Edison Electric Institute (EEI)-is also bought and paid for by the electric utility industry as you would expect of a lobbying organization). But where this becomes extremely wrong is when EPRI attempts to influence national policy under the guise of being an “independent” scientific organization supplying unbiased and independent research. This is a lie. EPRI is a thinly veiled electric utility industry lobbying group and their products are lobbying pamphlets-not scientific reports."
Doing in pairs of 3?
So they give that SUPER ∆ CONCAVE SHAPE
Or 4 nested
but idk,I wonder do twisting them or making differently geometric pattern has an effect
This is 8
Anything containing electric conductors or circuits will fry. How do we recover from such attack? a grid for instance? This is most important it could cripple an entire nation.
Fun fact! It could be much worse! Theres always a coronal mass ejection, basically the sun could let off a massive blast of energy and, given how bad it COULD be, might have the potential to essentially EMP much of the planet.
And we know its possible, because it has happened, multiple times in fact! We barely missed a fucking massive one in 2012, part of Quebec's grid was taken down by a small one, and there's the famous one in the early 1800. That one fucked over telegraph lines all over the place, but it wasn't that bad because we didn't use electricity that much, but that isn't the case nowadays.
@@dazmaster22 I remember reading about that in school, it actually destroyed fans and blew out lamps that weren't even plugged in!
Above North Dakota is the sweet spot. That's why all them missile complexes are there and that huge radar that operated for a few days before being shut down after spending around 6 billion.
Anything I can do to help you, EPRI? I'd love to pitch in anyway I can. Will be sharing this.
So the sub station control room equipment is going to be reverted back to analogue.
No. The goal of these people is to keep the electric industry from having to fix anything. michaelmabee.info/epri-emp-report/
Theoretically could you create a device to store the energy being discharged during E-2 in no genius but if it’s like lightning I’m then can’t we create something Similar
Let's get back to 1962 Starfish Prime Nuclear Test XD
The 1960s math shows that an E1 nuclear EMP from a high altitude Mt range weapon over a continental land mass would be utterly devastating to anything that contains conductive components (everything not flesh or concrete, in other words). The 50 kv/m figure is total nonsense. The likely amplitude from a targeted Mt range HEMP device would be in the Mv/m range, which is instantly damaging-to-devastating (a range of disabled to totally destroyed) for almost all systems containing electrical components. ALL AT ONCE - VIRTUALLY EVERYWHERE, whether "equally" or not. Think about THAT.
Whoever made this thing is, for whatever reason (one can only speculate), disgracefully wrong.
Let's be totally clear: a Mt range nuclear EMP is utterly devastating. That's what you should know.
Starfish Prime nuclear test
yep. these guys are paid for by the electric industry. michaelmabee.info/epri-emp-report/
Many things, yes. However my 1954 airplane will be fine. Points ignition. Depends on what they detonate. Then there's the retaliatory strike back on them. The result would probably be around 1 billion people remaining. Maybe much fewer.
The EM (E1,E2,E3) wave power falls off at with distance squared. The induced electric field (volts per meter) falls off linear with distance. At 100Km away nothing will happen. With short pulses, it appears as voltage glitch of 10ns.
On the other hand, any driver IC that is connected to a coil, example a transistor connected to a relay coil is susceptible to E2. since the E2 induces a voltage in the coil that will reverse break down the transistor driver, damaging it. The E3 like a solar storm is weak and long lasting that has been mitigated
So the February 2023 Chinese Balloon over the US does not have the altitude capabilities to make such a thing work.
I smoke, that hemp.
Electromagnetic Engineers: *Confused screaming.*
Yesss xD
Prisons will shut down and inmates would likely escape. With the police down for the count, criminals would do what they please. The violence would be severe.
Hospitals and nursing homes would shut down and people would start dying as their breathing machines and other devices power down. Without vital prescriptions, many more would die in the coming days and weeks.
It is estimated that as many as 500,000 people would die in the first hour due to planes crashing.
Without power, every aircraft in the sky would fall to the ground or glide into buildings killing almost everybody on board. Many people on the ground would die as well when these flights plow into populated areas.
Elevators would be a death trap as they freeze in place. Those inside would be in complete darkness and would have to try and find a way out before dying of dehydration. Anybody living near nuclear plants would be in trouble as well.
As the backup generators get fried, these plants would melt down releasing large amounts of radiation. They would kill anybody downwind of the plant. There are 99 nuclear reactors located in the US.
Cholera would likely become a problem within the first few weeks (which is caused by people drinking tainted water). With no power, water filtration plants would go down. Humans can only survive for three days without water. When day three rolls around people will start drinking whatever water they can find.
Many parents work 20 or more miles from home or from their child’s school.
With all transportation coming to a halt, parents would have to hike to their kids and hope their teacher stuck around despite having a family of their own.
So satellites can orbit within the EMP possible range.
Makes one wonder how many doomsday nukes are whizzing by overhead.
Oh yah and then there is the sun.
You thought Cerveza bug was bad.
What about batteries? Will batteries survive?
The batteries should be fine but any circuit you connect them to might be fried
It is more likely the will use many smaller portable units.
I guess we'll find out when DHS sets off an EMP possibly in the next day or two. They warned us in June.
I don't think it will be a big type EMP but more like mini attacks in our grid as substations are not protected and easy to take advantage of. A few out of commission upstream of somewhere important will cause a huge log jam!
I tend to favor that an EMP would not be so destructive as a cascade event shutting down the whole system. If enough sub-stations are shorted out, the grid would self activate safety shut down procedures and we would be on candle power for a brief period. Just a theory on my part.
They can pull the plug even in some spots like stores exc exc or have the hole street or city as if if a hurricane hit
Thank you so much for putting rational analysis on this topic UA-cam needs to do a better job of moderating the influence of all the pseudoscience out there
and then the ones that realize a little too late that their thin stainless steel silver and zinc bedsheet doesn't do anything against an 80-120dBm E1 pulse.
Laurence Blake pseudoscience is the only science that we hear
I agree with ray. These guys are bought and paid for by the electric industry. They lowballed the strength of the emp in their 'study'.
definetly future wars started with emp
Could also come from a solar X flare.
supposedly satellite stations can also be used to transfer energy and waves on the surface of the earth as well as in outer space, possibly by building pipelines of electromagnetic waves through out space.
the fk you talkin about
I can dig it, so something out there would have to have a receiving/collection and defragmenting/decoding filters programs algorithms and such to get what said satellites are transmitting. If satellites are as we are told. Either way it's fascinating.
Hmm
Has anyone just became afraid to fly?
all planes would need to glide down at the same time. i wouldn't want to be on a highway or waterway at that time either.
Why would this make you afraid to fly?
It would have to be a global scale attack though because our Allies would help us?
It dose not damage the machines it affects the programmable controllers and computers. The equipment will only be down for a short time until damage components are replaced. And anything underground will not be affected.
1) Programmable controllers and Scada system damage CAN and WILL damage high speed components of the power system (see picture damage from 2008 EMP report, fig.2-6, page 41. Also, these Scadas and PLCs are ubiquitous throughout ALL life essential infrastructures causing all kinds of additional damage: think modern oil refineries, for example. 2) Russian EMP test results showed damage to even underground (buried) cables and even robust diesel generators. 3) This video needs updating as reports to the EMP Commission indicated Russian development of "Super" EMP weapons designed to increase gamma ray (E-1 radiation) to 200 KV/M- 4 TIMES the level of E-1 mentioned in the video
An Addendum: "Super" EMP technology has reportedly been transferred to North Korea by Russian scientists, and possible technology transfer to the Iranians from the North Koreans.
not true. the ground has conductance in these extreme "millions of trillions" of watt-energy releases. the low frequency waves and magnetic field being jerked around 3x worse than a solar storm make short work of that. with multitudes of complicating factors of course.
btw, even if its small, there WILL be a lot of fire. there are hardly any businesses, power providers, or food delivery services with the necessary defenses. we can only hope that the country doing the EMP'ing likes nuclear retaliation. but by the time they are a poisonous wasteland the damage will have already been done to the infrastructure.
@@johnmulfort8869 wont work on them, they dont hardly use electricity lol
also im glad someone else on here has read the reports
tbh, NNEMPs are a more troubling conundrum. 1-100 picosecond rise times with like 50x the power output of a super emp, and it covers frequency ranges that the E1 and E2 pulse combined have trouble getting. most cars soft-lock or fry something at just 35kV/m2 and here they are with 10+MV/m2... that'l fry the hair off your nutsack and give you one hell of a headache
A weapon against the public ,who don't live under ground and don't have spare parts
pray tell how are you testing effects?
not on the common folk right?
They 'tested' by lowballing the strength of the emp. They use 20 v/m instead of 85. 20 would be the LOWER range of a weapon today. Upper range is 1000. michaelmabee.info/epri-emp-report/
There’s protection against this.
WWWIII will be decided by volunteers. Exercise your rights while you still have them(2A). Only the times change, the nature of Mankind does not.
HEMP ayyy lmao 420...

are we ready for this shit ?

That kind weapon is used to destroy satellites and communication equipment.... I worked for harry diamond laboratory for awhile....
Operation"star prime"
fish.
Wonder what the survivors might do to the government officials who caused this to happen? May be best to keep that classified.
How would the government cause it?
EMP research and construction constitute the highest criminal activity and should be banned w/o question.
Wow. Power serdg

Sholdn't this be labeled HAEMP. or are we promoting hemp, this is a load of bollocks.
Agree!
Hehe hemp
