Conspiracy theory no more, Ionospheric heating/modification including HAARP itself, and the potential for weather chaos and more, is exposed in the Mainstream Media, thanks to China’s bragging, even though somewhat downplayed. Here’s the NZ Herald article (thanks to Rose at theConTrail.com for the alert).
China and Russia band together on controversial heating experiments to modify the atmosphere
China and Russia have modified an important layer of the atmosphere above Europe to test a controversial technology for possible military application, according to Chinese scientists involved in the project.
A total of five experiments were carried out in June. One, on June 7, caused physical disturbance over an area as large as 126,000 sq km (49,000 square miles), or about half the size of Britain.
The modified zone, looming more than 500km (310 miles) high over Vasilsursk, a small Russian town in eastern Europe, experienced an electric spike with 10 times more negatively charged subatomic particles than surrounding regions.
In another experiment on June 12, the temperature of thin, ionised gas in high altitude increased more than 100 degrees Celsius (212 degrees Fahrenheit) because of the particle flux.
The particles, or electrons, were pumped into the sky by Sura, an atmospheric heating facility in Vasilsursk built by the former Soviet Union’s military during the cold war.
The Sura base fired up an array of high-power antennas and injected a large amount of microwaves into the high atmosphere. The peak power of the high frequency radio waves could reach 260 megawatts, enough to light up a small city.
Zhangheng-1, a Chinese electromagnetic surveillance satellite, collected the data from orbit with cutting-edge sensors. The pumping and fly-by required precise coordination to achieve effective measurement.
When Zhangheng approached the target zone, for instance, the sensors would switch to burst mode to analyse samples every half a second, much faster than usual, to increase data resolution…
..The High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program, or HAARP, was established in Gakona, Alaska, in the 1990s with funding from the US military and the Defence Advanced Research Projects Agency.
The HAARP facility could generate a maximum 1 gigawatt of power, nearly four times that of Sura.
China is now building an even larger and more advanced facility in Sanya, Hainan, with capability to manipulate the ionosphere over the entire South China Sea, according to an earlier report by the South China Morning Post.
There have been concerns that such facilities could be used to modify weather and even create natural disasters including hurricanes, cyclones and earthquakes….
..The Sura facility has also conducted joint research with France and the United States, according to papers published in academic journals.
The National Centre for Space Studies, a French government agency under the supervision of the ministries of defence and research, has deployed the micro satellite DEMETER to monitor Sura’s radio emissions.
The Defence Meteorological Satellite Programme run by the US Department of Defence has also contributed fly-by data in several heating experiments conducted at the Russian site before 2012…
Well, there you go folks. I even theorized about China’s involvement in all this back in 2012 when researching the Christchurch earthquakes and was ridiculed for such heretical thinking. Now it sure looks like collusion between the major superpowers. Another “conspiracy theory” realized. Note the mention of “weaponizing” the atmosphere over the South China sea. Whoever controls the weather, controls the world.
“We are not playing God. We are not the only country teaming up with the Russians. Other countries have done similar things,” said another researcher who was involved in the project and asked not to be named because of the sensitivity of the issue.

“Precautions against unconventional arms must be intensified as potential terrorists develop chemical and biological weapons and electromagnetic methods that could create holes in the ozone layer or trigger earthquakes or volcanoes.” …Former US Secretary of Defense William Cohen speaking at the University of Georgia, 1997
“Technology will be made available, to the leaders of major nations, techniques for conducting secret warfare, of which only a bare minimum of the security forces need be appraised…Techniques of weather modification could be employed to produce prolonged periods of drought or storm.” …Zbigniew Brzezinski, Former National Security Adviser, Between Two Ages: America’s Role in the Technetronic Era, Greenwood Publishing Group, 1992
