Cloudbuster And ORANUR: What The Sources Actually Establish

What Is Documented

WRM's research and publications page describes The ORANUR Experiment and Contact with Space as official publication paths. It also describes a later device, called a cloudbuster, as an array of hollow metal pipes grounded in water through flexible tubes.

That source is useful for explaining Reich's own device lineage: ORANUR, stagnant atmospheric energy, CORE, and later cloudbuster reports. It is not an independent validation of weather modification.

How To Cite Carefully

A careful sentence says that WRM describes Reich as devising a cloudbuster after ORANUR and lists CORE and Contact with Space as source paths. A careless sentence says the cloudbuster made rain. The first is archival; the second needs independent meteorological evidence.

For this reason, Reich Files labels atmospheric results as reported claims unless a contemporaneous weather record, field log, or independent analysis is cited.

Records Still Needed

The next research step is to locate field logs, engineering drawings, correspondence, and any independently dated weather or local press records tied to cloudbuster operations. Without those, the archive can map publications but should not resolve the claim.

• Request CORE volumes and Contact with Space through official WRM channels.
• Search local Arizona newspapers for late-1954 to early-1955 contemporaneous accounts.
• Ask WRM whether cloudbuster drawings or field notes are available for research access.
