HAARP stands for High-Frequency Active Auroral Research Program. It was a research program jointly funded by the U.S. Air Force, the U.S. Navy, and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) that was active from 1993 to 2014.
HAARP was designed to study the Earth's ionosphere, which is the layer of the Earth's atmosphere that starts at an altitude of about 60 kilometers (37 miles) and extends to the edge of space. Specifically, the program was aimed at investigating the properties and behavior of the ionosphere, with the goal of better understanding its effects on radio communication, navigation, and surveillance systems.
The HAARP facility was located in Gakona, Alaska, and consisted of a series of high-frequency antennas and a complex of supporting facilities. By transmitting high-power radio waves into the ionosphere, researchers could study how the ionosphere responded to different frequencies and power levels.
Despite the scientific goals of the program, HAARP has been the subject of various conspiracy theories, which suggest that the program was actually intended for purposes such as weather modification, mind control, or even causing earthquakes and other natural disasters. However, there is no scientific evidence to support these claims, and most mainstream scientists view HAARP as a legitimate research program focused on understanding the properties of the Earth's ionosphere.
