“Divine Strake”

I get a lot of questions about the meaning of the term “strake” as in the Divine Strake” test scheduled for June 2 at the Nevada Test Site.

Global Security has these definitions:
Divine: Having the nature of or being a deity. Of, relating to, emanating from, or being the expression of a deity: sought divine guidance through meditation. Being in the service or worship of a deity; sacred. Superhuman; godlike. Supremely good or beautiful; magnificent: a divine performance of the concerto. Extremely pleasant; delightful: had a divine time at the ball. Heavenly; perfect.

Strake: A device for controlling air flow over an aircraft. A strake is also a part of a boat or ship used for generally the same purpose in water rather than air. It is a strip of planking in a wooden vessel or of plating in a metal one, running longitudinally along the vessel’s side, its bottom or between them on the turn of the bilge.

  2. Re: any more on the protest?
    Yes, I’ve been waiting to post details, but I can go ahead and publicize that there will be a HUGE action at the test site on May 28th. There will be speakers, workshops, and direct action.
    People who cannot come to the test site will be asked to hold actions at federal buildings all over during that week.
    Details will be coming soon. We have a conference call today to flush things out.
    Please go ahead and mark this date on your calendar! And feel free to start organizing actions in your localities that week!

  3. kiss and thanks. I’ll keep watching
    I’m looking for directions for one, and if non-group affiliated people can show up. How direct we could get with our signage etc.

  4. Re: kiss and thanks. I’ll keep watching
    I am going to be publishing a post on this – stay tuned.
