It was not what they’d expected. They had thought the chemical would disperse much earlier, and lower down in the cloud.

We all know the regular multiplication that we learn in school. To multiply a number by 3, you can multiply a number by two and add it with itself. Programmers write:
a * 3 = a + (a<<1)
where a<<1 means "shift the bit values by one to the left, filling in with a zero". That's a multiplication by two.
