PaulW,
LOL... for lame sakes.
I don't know about your computer but I've a Terabyte+ drive from last year off the shelf. What they happen to have in the flight computer on that aircraft in the article is irrelevant. What size drives are available today with a large budget?
Covering Puna is in the bag with what's POSSIBLE... don't you think?
Wahine is only part farmer, more on the gardening side (no pay in that though); professionally? She's in the nuclear industry and travels about the world from reactor to reactor leaving me alone for weeks on end very frequently. Since I'm an "Asshole"
that's probably a good thing.
I did read the article. Do I think they use A SIMILAR more expensive technology here in Puna? Paul I'd have to say from my experience in the military and knowing what becomes classified or on a need to know basis only... YES, I've no doubt and this is a “war” type engagement so the same basic rules apply. What agency is providing the technology I don’t know, but, it only takes one agency to locate it.
Again… actual knowledge via a reliable source is what helps form factual plausibility’s vs. simple opinions that are most often nothing more than baseless speculation.
You are the judge for yourself, the actaul evidence stands in the form of several citations, on the other side of the court, there’s a load of baseless speculation that has no recent citation or backing.
BTW… you asked about a spectrometer being loaded in an aircraft/helicopter or something to that effect to TomK… What was his answer to you and what does the linked article point to in one of the photos loaded in the Cessna aircraft? Credibility usually has backing. I seem to find one citation after another that discredits Tom’s speculations. Why is that? What sort of scientist is Tom? Is he an EE with a PHD, masters or equivalent? Is he a Physicists? I would “speculate” Tom is a Geologist at best or something equal to in the sciences… but an authority in electrical engineering or physics… not.
E ho'a'o no i pau kuhihewa.
