In 1951 reich said he had discovered an energy called DOR, deadly orgone radiation which he said resulted in desertification of areas of land, which lead him to create the device called the cloudbuster! it consisted of 15ft aluminium pipes built on a mobile platform fed by hoses inserted in to water, with this cloudbuster he believed he called unblock the deadly ORG and induce rain to fall, halting the desertification process or at least bring welcomed rain to drought ridden areas for farmers and there crops, this was indeed demonstrated in 1953 with two farmers in maine and reich was paid for his service.
