Alaska's HAARP project blamed for Russian space probe's failure

Doug O'Harra | Dec 14, 2011

Forget mind control, weather manipulation and the various other sinister capabilities ascribed to Alaska's High-frequency Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP) transmitter by the agitated, conspiracy-minded among us. A former Russian general has now apparently blamed the sometimes controversial radio facility outside Gakona for zapping that country's mission to snatch seven ounces of soil from the Martian moon Phobos.

The Phobos-Grunt probe was headed into space on Nov. 9 when a rocket failed to boost it into higher orbit, marking the 19th failed attempt by the Russians to mount a successful mission to the Red Planet. Its $163 million demise -- the probe is expected to crash to Earth in January -- triggered outrage in Russia, including a call for criminal prosecution by Russia President Dmitry Medvedev.

"The probe itself has since communicated only sporadically with ground stations, and even then it has murmured only unintelligible noise," notes Jim Nash, in this detailed post on Scientific American.

But Lt. Gen. Nikolay Rodionov, a former commander of Russia's ballistic missile systems, says covert U.S. radio beams -- not any Russian screw-ups -- scrubbed the interplanetary trip.

noooo

Please don't, we need liberty-minded patriots here, no matter who the president is.

great i wonder what all the newly converted neocon

and liberal blood think about this. let's remind them the single biggest difficulty factor people had trouble overcoming back in 08, the kookiness element that drove people away. we now have maybe 10 times the original support base you can slowly filter and see whom gets turn off. have fun.

russians matter when a story is fun to you. all other times they are treated as kooky. funny.

Don't let the unaware people control your thoughts so much.

It doesn't matter that it's kooky. It's real. Research it.

Anyone who gets turned off by the "kookyness' after...

last week's vote on the Defense Authorization Act is too dense to wake up, anyway.

Russia and HAARP

Russia is not the first country to accuse the US of using HAARP covertly. Both China and Iran have accused the US of using it to create the droughts. Anyone who has read up on the subject, including researching the inventor, Nicola Tesla, would probably say...very possible. You would be amazed at what is going on over your heads, and more than a little concerned.

Conspiracy...not.

Russia has an installation

Russia has an installation that is very similar to HAARP. Maybe they did it to themselves?

Actually

...there are reports that several countries have the technology and that the atmosphere and above is the new battleground.

Unfortunately, the weather, and much more, can be seriously manipulated. The power is potentially devastating.
