Can we really make it rain? This episode takes a grounded look at cloud seeding, the science—and controversy—behind human-influenced weather.

We explore:

• How silver iodide and salt are used to trigger precipitation
• The methods: static vs. dynamic seeding
• Scientific debates on effectiveness and data inconsistency
• Environmental and health safety assessments
• Legal gray areas and unregulated international cloud ownership
• Why conspiracy theories keep cloud seeding in the spotlight
• The resurgence of the "rainmaker" in climate tech circles

Whether you're curious about climate engineering, water policy, or the tech reshaping our skies, this episode brings clarity to a cloudy topic.
