Moonshot Goal 8
Realization of a society safe from the threat of extreme winds and rains by controlling and modifying the weather by 2050.

Target of Moonshot Goal

  • Making it possible to intervene to change the timing, range and intensity of typhoons and extreme rains (including those that occur in linear precipitationzones), significantly reducing disaster damage and bringing a wide range of benefits to society by 2050.
  • Demonstration on a computer that it is possible to reduce disaster damage by controlling typhoons and extreme rains using realistic intervention operations, and conduct experiments to verify these operations by 2030.
