The truth behind HAARP.
The reality is more grandiose than the conspiracy theories.

If only the United States had activated the original HAARP. Then they could have met their Paris commitments by shutting it down!

I could never figure out how the conspiracy theorists could just decide, counter to every known and uncommonly good sense, that whatever effects of HAARP, those effects would be effective as well as effective globally.

Well you do know that Nikola Tesla caused the Tunguska Event with his Wardenclyffe Tower. So the capabilities of HAARP must be way out there.

Fuck. And as soon as people who knew shit about forensic geology looked at it and they were like, yeah, this is megaton airburst shit, like Chelyabinsk but fucking tragically largerā¦ then it was all about āice or iron?ā. Funny thing, it seems to have been something in the middle. Our solar system rubble.
Because a tower on Long Island tapping local generators or the grid from 1910ā¦ yeah, thatās shit is some kind of perfect spring of an atmosphere combined with modulation requiring godlike knowledge and reflexes. Great comic book idea. Or middling. Not plausible in the real world.

Reminds me of Vice President Dan Quayle:

Itās a fascinating bunch of information. The more you try to understand what heās written, the less sense it makes.
For example, who are the ātheyā and āweā he is referring to in the second sentence?

For this kind of thieving bigoted rapist gang leader, the only way to keep the scam going is to maintain peopleās confusion about the definition of the words āweā and āusā.

Trump and Quayle are both part of a forty-year trend of Republicans nominating people for President and Vice President who seem to be mentally impaired
Gerald Ford
Ronald Reagan
Dan Quayle
George W. Bush
Sarah Palin
Donald Trump
Democrats donāt do this, and the Republicans didnāt used to either. Itās very odd.
People hated Hoover and Goldwater and Nixon but nobody said they were dumb.

Itās almost like they like people who they revere just for being rich and powerful.

FTFY. It plays well to their base, the segment of the population generally referred to billionairesā¦

It parallels the āgodā (I would say, man-made idol) they worship: irrational and vengeful, but stupid enough that they can feel themselves to be god-adjacent.

Some combination of con artists who can speak to the idiot base in its own language and fools who can be easily manipulated by the donors? The right-wing media machine is always looking for people on this, um, spectrum, and shining its admiring light on them.
Remember that Wisconsin sheriff with all those self-awarded medals on his chest?
Trump is the only example who managed to weasel his way in from the outside by acting like this.

Fun fact: I knew the guy personally. I was a child at the time, so one could argue that I was too naive to know him, or that I had the innate instinct to recognize dangers in my environment. I did not feel afraid around him in any way. He was not refined, certainly, but not dangerous. My sense of it, looking back, is that nowadays he would be considered a principled never-Trumper. Thatās how far the Overton Window has shifted.

Airplanes will have to be smaller with daylight no-storage solar cells and very much larger to carry the freight of storage. Not moving forward with* either isnāt doable and would make aerospace interesting again for decades to come.
