Were you looking for the AARP?

The High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP) is a scientific research program designed to study the ionosphere of the earth and its effects on communication. HAARP is essentially a large ELF radio wave generator in Alaska funded by the Department of Defense in conjunction with the University of Alaska. It was started in 1993 and ran until May 2013. The Air Force expressed plans to dismantle the facility unless it can locate an alternate source of funding.[1]

Some non-scientists criticized HAARP, since they worried that a similar device using more energy could be used as a weapon and that the true purpose of the experiment has not been fully revealed. It has also been criticized as a boondoggle costing many times more than its initial budget. But mostly, HAARP is a popular target for conspiracy theorists who believe that ELFs can be used for mind control and weather control - it's even been blamed for the 2008 Chinese, 2010 Haitian, March 2011 Japanese earthquakes and 2014 southeast Europe floods.

When, in December 2012, the famous (and famously WRONG) pseudoscientist Richard Hoagland took his Accutron joke experiment to Chichen Itza, he reported that he had detected that HAARP was being used to prevent the planet from tipping over. That was just before he was ejected from the place by site security—an event that was entertainingly captured on video.

Its attraction to conspiracists, its overextended budget and its sweeping scope make HAARP very similar to the Large Hadron Collider.

[edit] Claims of symptoms

There are a group of people who claim to have certain medical conditions (which one depends on who you ask) and that they "pulsate" from electromagnetic waves, hear loud ringing sounds, etc.

Common symptoms claimed:

  • Muscle aches
  • Joint aches
  • High pitched ringing inside the head
  • Clicking in the head
  • Vibrations

The nuttier like to combine this with the chemtrail conspiracy, and use "Microwave Imagery" as proof.[2]
