Re: China's EMP test on cruise ship?

I think you found a missing piece to the puzzle BTDT.

Missile was launched Nov 8th.
I read somewhere that the missile went to some isolated region in China. (Looks like T posted a article showing that) What I don't understand is why the missile video stopped where it did? It either went further or blew up, and I don't think it blew up, so why stop the video?

Ship fire Nov. 8th

Without considering the source for that EMP article and just looking at the evidence, I think he might be right.

The ship has three engines in the aft engine room and three in a forward engine room. Each generator is connected to the two switchboards. The failure of the single engine or generator should not normally cause the total power loss.

Clark Dodge, former chief engineer for Washington State Ferries, said, "If things were designed properly, all the power shouldn't have gone out." An engine-room fire and damage to a generator and a switchboard shouldn't shut down other generators and engines, he said. "What happened makes no sense to me," said Dodge, a consultant. Experts do not understand why there was a total loss of power.

Dodge said large passenger vessels are designed so a fire won't cause a loss of all power. He said an engine-room fire and damage to a generator and switchboard shouldn't shut down the ship's other equipment.

A generator for an engine caught fire in the aft engine room 6 a.m. Monday, damaging a switchboard and "preventing the transmission of electricity to other machinery, including the propulsion motors," said Carnival spokeswoman Joyce Oliva.

(Carnival said earlier a "crankcase split, and that's what caused the fire," I don’t believe that.)

The cause of the fire, which was put out by the crew and the ship's automatic fire-suppression system, is unknown.

Nearly everything requiring electricity was inoperable after the fire. There was no air conditioning, hot water, cooking stoves or refrigeration. Interior rooms were pitch-black, and the pool, casino and some bars were closed. Ship's engineers started backup generators to provide limited power.

I can't find anything on what the final determination for the fire was yet.

“EMP detected on Nov 8th”
The cruse liner and missile launch were in the same region. Experts don’t understand how all power was lost. Carnival said it was a crankcase split and then a generator fire.

An EMP would definitely explain why all power was lost and nearly everything requiring electricity was inoperable. And since the backup generator would be off line and not on at the time, it would survive the EMP I would think, because they’re built to handle power surges. And since it was off at the time, the only surge it would have to handle is what was coming through the air.

So we have Russia saying China launched the missile and EMP and we have China popping up in a US military training mission. Looks like China, or it could possibly be both Russia and China. I was just thinking about Lindsey saying to keep our eyes on the both on them.

Bottom line is they look like all these events are related some how.
