HAARP Weather Control

A real U.S. government-funded research facility in Alaska genuinely does beam powerful radio energy into the upper atmosphere — and conspiracy theorists have blamed it for hurricanes, earthquakes, and mind control ever since.

HAARP (the High-frequency Active Auroral Research Program) is a real, publicly documented ionospheric research facility in Alaska, originally jointly funded by the U.S. Air Force and Navy, that studies the upper atmosphere using powerful radio transmitters. Conspiracy theories have attributed a wide range of unrelated events, including hurricanes, earthquakes, and mind control, to secret HAARP capabilities never demonstrated by the facility's actual, publicly disclosed research.

Quick facts

→HAARP is a real research facility located near Gakona, Alaska, originally developed and jointly funded by the U.S. Air Force and Navy beginning in the 1990s, now operated by the University of Alaska Fairbanks.
→The facility's actual, publicly documented purpose is studying the ionosphere, the upper layer of Earth's atmosphere, using a large array of radio transmitters, primarily for communications and technical research.
→Conspiracy theories have attributed a wide range of unrelated natural disasters and other events, including specific hurricanes, earthquakes, and even claimed mind control programs, to secret HAARP capabilities.
→No peer-reviewed atmospheric or geological science supports the claim that HAARP's actual, documented radio transmission capabilities could cause or control weather events or earthquakes at the scale conspiracy theories propose.
