HAARP is an extremely low frequency radio wave generator. It stands for High Frequency Active Auroral
Research Program. It is a massive antennae array up in Alaska on the Copper River Basin. It’s altitude
fluctuates between 1000 and 3000 feet above sea level. It is operated by the US military, more
specifically the Navy and Air Force. It operates between 2.8 and 10 MHz. It was also voted one of the 10
most under reported news stories of the year by journalists.
Scientific Perspectives-
HAARP is an HF (High Frequency) generator. It generates frequency’s directly above the AM band and
below the VHF (Very High Frequency) or TV band. It will zap the Ionosphere which is between 40 and 600
miles above the earth’s surface. The ionosphere helps to shield out electromagnetic waves from space that
are harmful to life on earth. There are other ionospheric heaters located throughout the world. This
specific one differs though from the others in that it concentrates all the energy on one specific spot.
This cause a wide beam to focus in on a small area like when you use a piece of glass to start a fire.
The others start as a small beam and grows into a bigger area causing the amount of the beam to hit an
area to be weaker than when it starts out. The electromagnetic waves then bounce off the ionosphere and
radiate back down on the earth. These waves penetrate down to the bottom of the ocean depths. The HAARP
project is expected to generate over 1 billion watts when i!
t is completed. It is capable of delivering one watt per square centimeter which can cause the ionosphere
to increase and decrease in altitude.
Weather modification is also theoretically possible with HAARP. It can cause one of earth’s major
weather modifiers, the jet stream, to...
