Be it the first-ever cloned sheep, artificial diamonds, natural objects and phenomenon, synthetic trees or lifelike robots, the quest never seems to satiate. These changes or transformations challenge the natural order and that is the reason why sometimes humanity is forced to face the brunt of some insolent endeavors. Anyhow, we\u2019re here enlisting some of these ventures that impersonate the real thing.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.popsci.com\/military-aviation-amp-space\/article\/2009-09\/manmade-night-shining-cloud-startles-stargazers?page\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Night-Glowing Cloud<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.greendiary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/night-glowing-cloud_7LJEk_11446.jpg\" alt=\"night glowing cloud\" title=\"night glowing cloud\" \/><\/p>\n<p>On September 19, 2009, NASA scientists made the eastern US sky go radiant with a brilliant cloud of light.

However, Art Hunt, Dave Richey and Wayne Pierce invented the essential machinery i.e. the snow cannon in 1950. Now, since it has become a usual practice, the snowmakers force water and pressurized air through the machine that extends the ski seasons. In a climate-controlled environment, indoor ski slopes can be kept snow-clad all year around.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cloud seeding: Vietnam washout<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.greendiary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/operation-popeye_OHmdy_11446.jpg\" alt=\"operation popeye\" title=\"operation popeye\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In early 1967, the US military carried out a cloud-seeding operation for a period of over five years during the Vietnam War to extend the rainy season.
