I stumbled against this information about Operation Fishbowl. Was this whole project an attempt to break the Earth’s firmament? Is the Earth really flat and they tried to break the firmament described in the bible?
The Operation Fishbowl nuclear tests were originally to be completed during the first half of 1962 with three tests named Bluegill, Starfish and Urraca.[1]
The first test attempt was delayed until June. Planning for Operation Fishbowl, as well as many other nuclear tests in the region, began rapidly in response to the sudden Soviet announcement on August 30, 1961, that they were ending a three-year moratorium on nuclear testing.[2] The rapid planning of very complex operations necessitated many changes as the project progressed.
All of the tests were to be launched on missiles from Johnston Island in the Pacific Ocean north of the equator. Johnston Island had already been established as a launch site for United States high-altitude nuclear tests, rather than the other locations in the Pacific Proving Grounds. In 1958, Lewis Strauss, then chairman of the United States Atomic Energy Commission, opposed doing any high-altitude tests at locations that had been used for earlier Pacific nuclear tests. His opposition was motivated by fears that the flash from the nighttime high-altitude detonations might blind civilians who were living on nearby islands. Johnston Island was a remote location, more distant from populated areas than other potential test locations.[3] To protect residents of the Hawaiian Islands from flash blindness or permanent retinal injury from the bright nuclear flash, the nuclear missiles of Operation Fishbowl were launched generally toward the southwest of Johnston Island so that the detonations would be farther from Hawaii.
Urraca was to be a test of about 1 megaton yield at very high altitude (above 1000 km).[4] The proposed Urraca test was always controversial, especially after the damage caused to satellites by the Starfish Prime detonation, as described below. Urraca was finally canceled, and an extensive re-evaluation of the Operation Fishbowl plan was made during an 82-day operations pause after the Bluegill Prime disaster of July 25, 1962, as described below.
A test named Kingfish was added during the early stages of Operation Fishbowl planning. Two low-yield tests, Checkmate and Tightrope, were also added during the project, so the final number of tests in Operation Fishbowl was five. Tightrope was the last atmospheric nuclear test conducted by the United States, as the Limited Test Ban Treaty came into effect shortly thereafter.
I watched these 2 interviews and I think they are full of good information about life and general knowledge. I have always said that you can’t know anything about people by their looks and these interviews just prove it again. Give it a listen, very good topics.

I has been 13 years now since I started this website and blog. I have had many ups and downs in my life regarding personal life, music and work. I have thought many times that I close this website, but then when some of you guys comment my old posts and info, I thought, that maybe someone can get comfort from it.
I have a little interest to search new topics anymore, because I made so many posts of different things in the past and it was like a personal journey. My own life is also crumbling down. If someone finds this information supportive or comforting when studying their own things then fine, I pay for it. I get absolutely nothing about this, only website costs, which I pay from my own pocket.
World is on fire now and only thing I can say is that there are evil forces behind all of this. I have only one request from you, try to bring light in this World and positive thoughts. World is now full of hate, fear and anger. Try to preserve peace at any cost.
I hope sincerely from my heart that next year is better for all of us.
Hey! It’s been almost 13 years when I started this web-blog and it has been a quite ride. Thank you all, who have supported the blog and I mean just visited here. The most important thing is to spread the info. So happy holidays to you all and have a nice Christmas!
I hope that no one of you is a lost soul on these holidays. Enjoy your free time. We will be back!
While you enjoy your holidays you can always take a cup of coffee and enjoy our online library:
I got interested about this movie when the trailer came out, but then I forgot it. Last weekend I got a change to look it and woah! It was just like Donald Marshall has told us about cloning, cloning centers, how they dispose clones in so called chipper. All of the key items are renamed of course, but the idea is crystal clear. Even one of the key characters in the movie is called Kenneth Marshall, coincidence? I don’t think so.
Mickey 17 had its world premiere at Leicester Square in London on February 13, 2025, and was released theatrically by Warner Bros. Pictures in South Korea on February 28, 2025, and in the United States on March 7. The film received generally positive reviews from critics and grossed $133 million worldwide.
Plot
In 2050, to escape the global reach of a murderous loan shark, Mickey Barnes and his friend Timo join a spaceship crew to colonize the ice planet Niflheim. Timo becomes a shuttle pilot, while Mickey joins as an “Expendable”, a controversial job involving extremely dangerous tasks, with death resulting in a new clone of him with restored memories being created through a process called “reprinting”. During the voyage, a romance develops between Mickey and security agent Nasha.
Four years later, the spaceship arrives at Niflheim. After experimenting on and sacrificing multiple iterations of Mickey, the ship’s scientists develop a vaccine for the planet’s pathogens. The seventeenth Mickey is sent to capture one of native lifeforms dubbed “Creepers”,[a] but falls into a fissure. Timo retrieves Mickey’s valuable flamethrower but, out of convenience, leaves Mickey to die. The Creepers swarm Mickey, but instead of eating him, they carry him to the surface.
Mickey returns to the ship and is surprised to find an aggressive[b] Mickey 18 has been printed. The expedition’s leader, politician Kenneth Marshall, has sworn that in the event of “Multiples” of clones, all clones will be eliminated.[c] As a result, Mickey 18 attempts to kill Mickey 17, but 17 suggests they secretly rotate duties and deaths to survive. The two are interrupted when they witness Timo selling flamethrower fuel as drugs. Furious at Timo’s abuses, Mickey 18 tries to kill Timo, but relents when they are interrupted by Nasha. 18 leaves with Nasha, while 17 is taken to dinner with Marshall, his wife Ylfa, and security agent Kai. At the dinner, Mickey 17 reacts severely to being fed experimental vat-grown meat and painkillers. Kai saves Mickey 17 from being executed and brings him to her quarters, but Mickey 17 flees back to Nasha when Kai attempts to seduce him.
Nasha learns of the clones and accepts them, but Kai stumbles across the trio and tries to report them. When Mickey 17 informs 18 of the dinner incident, an enraged 18 decides to kill Marshall at a public ceremony unveiling a Niflheim rock to commemorate the expedition. Two baby Creepers, Luko and Zoco, emerge from the rock, causing panic. Mickey 17 captures Zoco, but Luko is killed by security when it startles Marshall. Nasha stops Mickey 18 from killing Marshall, but the Multiples are exposed, leading to Mickey 17, 18, and Nasha’s arrest.
Meanwhile, thousands of Creepers gather outside the ship, calling for Zoco. In the brig, Mickey 17’s description of the Creepers helping him causes Nasha to realize they are sentient. Timo arrives to dismember Mickey 17 on orders from the loan shark, who has an agent on the expedition. Mickey 18 offers to take 17’s place in a ruse, allowing Nasha to escape and overpower Timo, but security intervenes and takes them all to Marshall.
Marshall announces his plan to eliminate the Creepers and destroys Mickey’s memory backups to prevent him from being reprinted. Ylfa convinces Marshall to take the Mickeys outside and compete to collect Creeper tails for culinary use, with the winner allowed to live. The Mickeys are fitted with remote-detonated bomb vests to ensure compliance.
Once outside, the Mickeys seek out the Creepers’ leader. Marshall follows up with a security team to eliminate them and the Creepers when they fail to fulfill their task. Mickey 17 uses a translation device to warn the mother Creeper about Marshall’s plan, and the mother demands Zoco’s release and the sacrifice of a human in compensation for Luko’s death. Mickey 17 signals to Nasha to free Zoco. She takes Ylfa hostage to ensure Zoco’s release, and security agents, secretly working against Marshall, arrest Ylfa. Mickey 18 fights Marshall and detonates his vest, killing himself and Marshall to meet the Creepers’ demands.
Afterwards, Mickey 17 and the rest of the expedition make peace with the Creepers, Marshall and Ylfa’s collaborators face justice, and Ylfa kills herself. The loan shark associate attacks Timo, but Timo kills him in self-defense and uses the incident to testify against the loan shark. Nasha joins the colony’s leadership council. Spring arrives, and during the colony’s groundbreaking ceremony, Mickey 17, called Mickey Barnes once again, destroys the cloning device, ending the Expendable program.
