hans_chris (who has been posting to the DC from Northern Russia) sent this image to Monte - he reports that the 2 ships Kruger had in the Barents Sea have been lost in a huge storm...!
hans_chris actually took a survey flight out to the location where Kruger was thought to be (aboard the India) and the India was sinking... apparently the Jericho had already gone down... there were only a few survivors... but also - Kruger's phone was in one of the life rafts with memos on it! There are fragmented recordings of some of the last moments.
Monte has the full story along with the audio files here...
The celebration over the Bluebird Field Array is all in the past... with images like this one above being uncovered from the new batch of Kruger's cloud trash that lun3 retrieved yesterday, the DC have some terrifying theories on where Kruger really is right now and what he may be about to do...
hans_chris posted an entry to the DC last night reporting that the "India" was seen leaving Ostrov Kharlov this morning - not sure if he means this morning local time (am imagining that's what he meant, which means last night AEST), and he says: "This is a small part of the world. People know people here. The refineries, the processing plants. Pavel Ryabov is known..."
What is the "mesoshield"? Is Kruger building a rail gun? What is the significance of the "India" and "Jericho"? What is the significance of the storm he's got someone seeding for him? Many many questions and not much time...
A quick newsflash from the Stop Bluebird camp - thanks to the efforts of lun3terr3, Kyle and the DC, the Bluebird Field Array has been SHUT DOWN!!
Within 2.5 hours of lun3terr3 releasing access to the interface she managed to pull together for the Field Array RAS the DC worked non-stop and collaborated to shut off all 60 spokes in the array. An amazing effort, and a huge relief for ALL.
The last 24 hours have been mind-blowing and frightening...
The latest news from the DC is that Kruger is on his way to the "India", a large ship normally based in Russia (port = Arkhanghelsk, Russia)...
More importantly though, Harrison suspects that Kruger may have turned on the Bluebird Field Array, which he says is based somewhere in Northern Siberia. THIS IS A HUGE CONCERN.
lun3terr3 has already been sifting through remnants of the Field Array files that were recovered from the Russian cloud server she had managed to access last week - Kruger's secret files (which he thought had been deleted from the cloud server) included corrupt elements of the Field Array RAS (Remote Access System)...
Thankfully lun3terr3 is already onto this and is working frantically to have a way to interface with the FA RAS for tomorrow night, AEST.
Stay tuned for more details - but in the meantime, Monte is urging the DC and anyone else who wants to help to keep sifting through Kruger's cloud files to see if there is anything we've missed that might point to where he's really headed and what he's really up to...
Monte has just posted an unbelievable and very scary audio recording to her blog - you've got to listen to it and read her post!!
Short story - Kruger has confronted Harrison about pausing Bluebird and they've had a huge argument, resulting in Harrison being knocked unconscious by Kruger. Kruger dumped Harrison in the desert with no phone or wallet!!
Somehow Harrison made it back to the Bluebird labs and managed to contact Monte...
So, Monte's latest update from the DC has been posted. She's very cautious about Harrison Wyld's announcement to pause Bluebird... and I must admit after my initial excitement of hearing Harrison's announcement yesterday I too have had Paul Kruger in the back of my mind...
Where is he? He's been completely out of sight. Are Monte and the DC right to suspect that we need to keep an eye out for him? All the evidence uncovered in the DC certainly proves that he has the smarts and the means to do just about anything. He's well connected, and he's been spending money on all kinds of materials - all supposedly for the Bluebird Field Array.
Still, there's no evidence of a definite launch date - yes, Harrison says in his latest video that May 11 was to be the day and obviously we've past that point... but there's nothing else that points to any other date... well, nothing that's been found yet. Is it really over?
Monte has asked that the DC hang about and keep digging for a little longer - for her, there are too many unresolved issues and questions that need to be answered... and, what if Harrison's statement is all a rouse?
Surely though Harrison is the one who has the power to press the launch button though? And conversely he'd be the one person with power to override it? At the end of the day, he'd have to have complete control over any launch? He'd be mad not to.
There's still mystery around the exact launch plans for Bluebird and the DC are debating this right now. Are the rockets and balloons options out of the question? Is the field array the one method HW and PK had decided to go with? Please join them in their quest to get to the truth - join the discussion via these threads:
This week lun3terr3 shared an amazing discovery with the DC - she stumbled on a lead which resulted in her finding a way to retrieve some files that had been deleted off a Russian cloud server. The files had been deleted by a user with the name "ryabov" and contain personal artefacts stored by Paul Kruger. lun3terr3 = genius.
Lady D was the first to crack 2 key passwords on 2 of the new folders - "FA" and "pers".
She also decoded these images of Kruger at an "array":
Kruger's "pers" folder features a selection of images relating to his family, including these which have Kruger's dad's name (Jandre) in their filenames:
There's also Jandre's will, and this very sad newspaper clipping relating to Kruger's mum, Maarja:
This photo was a complete surprise... guess who this is when he was 4 years old?
Paul Kruger is obviously a very sentimental man - this data set uncovered by lun3terr3 if nothing else is like a digital scrapbook of various parts of his life.
The members of the DC are pouring over these and many other files in an effort to solve the mystery of Paul Kruger and his true motivations - fingers crossed this will lead us to the final truth about Bluebird...? Help them out at http://dashboardcollective.net.
"...if you are like me, and want to minimize the damage to people and all other living things on Earth, then you choose mitigation and, where necessary, adaptation. As for geoengineering, we do not yet have enough information to decide, but preliminary studies show that it presents more problems than it solves..."
AND
"...geoengineering is not a magic solution to global warming. Right now, it looks even more dangerous. So we must redouble our efforts to shift our economies to a post-carbon world, while still allowing the billions of people without adequate food, water, and education to improve their lives.
This offers tremendous economic opportunities, if we can just put a price on the dangers to the planet of current carbon emissions. So long as governments begin to push the world in this direction, we have a good chance to save our planet without geoengineering..."
I really hope Robuck is right with this last sentence - but many have said that the Copenhagen debacle points to the fact that governments can't be relied on... meanwhile others like Bill Gates are determined to find a way cut carbon emissions to zero by innovating with new technologies to solve our energy crisis.
Call me mad but at the end of the day, I believe there is still hope. The problem for the world is time, and patience.

About Stop Bluebird
This campaign has launched in conjunction with the leak of Bluebird, a rogue geoengineering project created by eco-billionaire Harrison Wyld. Help us put a stop to this very serious unilateral action!
