Title: What is HAARP?
Post by: Penguin on 16/11/2003 22:11:54
Has anybody ever heard of HAARP before, i read about it a long time ago. Has research be furthered on it yet, or is that classified?

Sorry to sound so ignorant, but what is HAARP?

i never heard of it before but i googled it (i know-- real scientific) and they have this site http://www.haarp.alaska.edu/
Heres what it says about the general project for people who never heard of it:
HAARP is a scientific endeavor aimed at studying the properties and behavior of the ionosphere, with particular emphasis on being able to understand and use it to enhance communications and surveillance systems for both civilian and defense purposes.

The HAARP program is committed to developing a world class ionospheric research facility consisting of:

The ionospheric research instrument (IRI), a high power transmitter facility operating in the HF frequency range. The IRI will be used to temporarily excite a limited area of the ionosphere for scientific study.
A sophisticated suite of Scientific (or "diagnostic") instruments that will be used to observe the physical processes that occur in the excited region.

How do you make that connection?

OHHHHHH i remember that...

HERES some links
http://www.totse.com/en/bad_ideas/guns_and_weapons/haarpbox.html

pretty much explains it, i sincerely hope its BS Though...

Supposidly it can create earthquakes or massive weather changes anywhere on the earth. Yheres also a myth floating around that the New York city blackout was a result of it being activated, i think because it happened minutes after stock markets closed, and the odd power stations where it occured.....i dont believe it though

Is HAARP a military weapon? New evidences suggests the 2011 Japan earthquake was induced by emission of Ultra Low Frequency (ULF) 2.5 Hz electromagnetic waves in the ionosphere.

(https://www.thenakedscientists.com/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fpresscore.ca%2F2012%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2011%2F03%2Fgkn20110311_Bx.gif&hash=b9e5b96d552b6eb6e4db2d0708f8f839)

The ULF 2.5 Hz frequency is evidence of an artificial earthquake.

Presscore.ca is not the only entity which claims that HAARP may induce artificial earthquakes by heating the ionosphere with ULF/ELF electromagnetic waves.

Infrared emissions above the epicenter increased dramatically in the days before the devastating earthquake in Japan, say scientists.

You should investigate the evidences before attempting to disrupt this thread with non scientific comments.

HAARP (High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program) is an ionospheric research program that is jointly funded by the US Air Force, the US Navy, the University of Alaska and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency. The HAARP program operates a major Arctic facility, known as the HAARP Research Station, located on an US Air Force owned site near Gakona, Alaska. HAARP has the ability to manipulate weather and produce earthquakes, since it is capable of directing almost 4 Mega Watts of energy in the 3 to 10 MHz region of the HF band up into the ionosphere. This energy can be bounced off of the ionosphere and directed back down at the earth to create earthquakes. HAARP could potentially be used by adversaries to produce such events. Depending on the frequency, focusing, wave shape, one can induce a variety of effects such as earthquakes, induced at a distant aiming point, severe disturbances in the middle and upper atmosphere over the target area and anomalous weather effects known as the "Tesla effect".

HAARP based technology is being actively used to emit powerful radio waves that permeate the earth and subsequently cause strong enough oscillations along fault lines of targeted areas to produce earthquakes. The high power radio waves of HAARP can be used to produce such intense vibrations as to cause an earthquake. HAARP based technology can be used to encourage and produce various weather phenomena such as hurricanes, flooding, or drought through manipulation of the ionosphere. Already Russia, China and Venezuela have suggested that a HAARP type technology weapon is capable of such and attack and been used against several countries causing severe destructions in Haiti, Japan, Russia, China, Iran, Chile, New Zealand, Afghanistan, India etc.

If the US had such capabilities, would we not have already held the entire world hostage for an ungodly ransom? [sarcasm] Is this the real reason why the EU built their subterranean black hole generator (Large Hadron Collider)? [/sarcasm]

As far as the science goes: HA! This is total nonsense. 4 megawatts of energy directed at the upper atmosphere would not have the ability to cause an earthquake. Not even remotely close to anything realistic. Seriously, you should be more worried about black holes coming

You should read articles before quoting them to support your case : that "technologyreview" article states that the atmospheric changes were due to the earthquake (https://www.google.com/search?q=Lithosphere-Atmosphere-Ionosphere+Coupling+mechanism.&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ved) , not the cause of the earthquake.

[ There are also electric phenomena just prior to an earthquake (http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2014/01/140106-earthquake-lights-earthquake-prediction-geology-science/) which have been reported for centuries ]

Okay, I admit this "Lithosphere-Atmosphere-Ionosphere coupling" mecanism is a bit woo-based. It's much simpler to affirm that the "HAARP" system is emitting (by design) ULF electromagnetic waves which causes strong oscillations along fault lines of targeted areas to produce artificial earthquakes. Regardless, this article do provides credible evidences that the ionosphere was heated prior to the earthquake.

Method and apparatus for altering a region in the earth's atmosphere, ionosphere, and/or magnetosphere


Quote
Abstract
A method and apparatus for altering at least one selected region which normally exists above the earth's surface. The region is excited by electron cyclotron resonance heating to thereby increase its charged particle density. In one embodiment, circularly polarized electromagnetic radiation is transmitted upward in a direction substantially parallel to and along a field line which extends through the region of plasma to be altered. The radiation is transmitted at a frequency which excites electron cyclotron resonance to heat and accelerate the charged particles. This increase in energy can cause ionization of neutral particles which are then absorbed as part of the region thereby increasing the charged particle density of the region.

High-power ELF radiation generated by modulated HF heating of the ionosphere can cause Earthquakes, Cyclones and localized heating

The  High  Frequency  Active  Auroral  Research  Program  (HAARP)  is  currently  the  most  important facility used to generate extremely low frequency (ELF) electromagnetic radiation in the ionosphere. In  order  to  produce  this  ELF  radiation  the  HAARP  transmitter  radiates  a  strong  beam  of  high-frequency (HF) waves modulated at ELF. This HF heating modulates the electrons’ temperature in the D  region  ionosphere  and  leads  to  modulated  conductivity  and  a  time-varying  current  which  then  radiates  at  the  modulation frequency.  Recently,  the  HAARP  HF  transmitter  operated  with  3.6GW  of  effective radiated power modulated at frequency of 2.5Hz. It is shown that high-power ELF radiation generated  by  HF  ionospheric  heaters,  such  as  the  current  HAARP  heater,  can  cause  Earthquakes,  Cyclones and strong localized heating.
