HAARP- Myth or Fact?

Here's a link to the episode list. Haarp is one of them listed.

Even the description of the 9/11 episode makes me mad, that's one episode of that show I will definitely never watch.

lol must be quite the family you have there 

Bad bait

teh pentagawn was neuked!  I sawer it!

What is this HAAARP you speak of, good sir?

LOL two different things going on here.

1. haarp is real.

2. What it does or what can be done with it is up to debate.

3. All govt's  put our well being before anything else.

Very coincidentally a couple months ago at an Amateur Radio one of the members of the HAARP project (also a member of the meeting group) gave the group a little lecture on the capabilities of HAARP. It is possible that the HAARP array is capable of pumping enough radiation into say, a missle, enough to screw it's electronics up (like a magnet screwing up your TV screen). Whether or not it can do all of everything else that conspiracy theorists are stating is, as others noted, up to debate. I won't go so far as to say that such things are impossible.

This kind of stuff is nothing old, in the 70's, the Soviet Union build their Duga Arrays...also known as "Wooddonut" antennas which were a step towards over-the-horizon radar, and so named because it made a repetitive patting noise on radio frequencies around the world. Interestingly, one of the developers of the HAARP project was actually the DESIGNER of the Wooddonut

HAARP wasn't even around during the first gulf war.

The dude in the fourth link was most likely pretty honkin bored.

Thinking about it, I really wish I knew more about it but half of the lecture was language that only a ham radio operator could understand. Give the HAARP team a buzz! talk to ham radio operations, there's plenty of em around. Just don't imply anything conspiracy related or they'll get annoyed lol.

Willfly, I was stationed at Ft. Wainwright Alaska during the first gulf war and there were rumors back then about strange antenna arrays. Well... they were not rumors... there was definitely talk about the antenna arrays... the rumors were about what they were being used for.

Hmm, you might be thinking of the HIPAS Observatory which conducts similar ionospheric research about 30 miles to the NE of Ft. Wainwright. The HAARP facility is about 250 miles to the SSE. The reason the two facilities are only a few hours apart is likely because both facilities are trying to take advantage of the unique qualities of the ionosphere above them that allow them to improve the quality of their experiments where other locations would not allow them to benefit as much.

PS: It appears that the vulgarity filter has substituted (the-bird-that-uses-it's-beak-to-hack-through-tree-bark) with "Woodonut." I also meant to say this stuff is "nothing new"

I think I read the energy density output by the antenna at the altitude of research is magnitudes less than what the sun exposes the same area to.

Very well could be Willfly. I just remember that whatever it was was a bit hush hush. It wasn't until years after I was out of the military that I heard of HAARP and wondered if the two were connected.

HAARP was the prototype (Hypothetical) of what is now the mature weapon system called American Association of Retired People (AARP).     No joke, AARP is a powerful lobbying force that will just about automatically enroll you when you reach 50 years of age. It is the quasi official notification that you are about to enter senior citizenry.

(WARNING: Acronym Diversion follows [not quite a thread hijack]): The two main problems with acronyms are too many groups share them, and too many groups don't sufficiently spell out what their acronym means.  Even SAC sometimes represented things much different from the "Peace Is Our Profession" Strategic Air Command.

Acronyms can breed arrogance. Even in its internet home site, periodicals, mastheads, and advertisements, AARP is rarely spelled out. That's pretty brazen for an organization that sounds like a seal (arctic, not Easter).  For example, the definition in the first sentence of this post is wrong.

AARP apparently stands for the Association of American Retired Persons. But don't bet on it unless somewhere it shows up in an official AARP site or publication. Good luck finding that. 

When a search gets that frustrating, the result is often "Who cares?" Close enough.
