The High-frequency Active Auroral Research Program, or HAARP, is a research site in Alaska that uses radio waves to study the atmosphere. It can't be used to manipulate weather or cause disasters such as the earthquakes that killed more than 40,000 peop...
Wendy Bohon, a geologist who studies earthquakes and a strategic communication strategist for the Earth Science Division at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, said HAARP and the earthquakes are unrelated.
So what caused the 7.8 and 7.5 magnitude earthquakes? They"occurred due to the driving force of plate tectonics," said Tobin. Most of Turkey sits on a tectonic plate called the Anatolian Plate. That plate is being pushed west as another plate, the Arabian plate, moves north, Bohon said. "Geologists have known for a long time that these faults can and will have big earthquakes," Bohon said."The question was never ‘if’ there would be earthquakes along these faults. The question was always ‘when.’"A Facebook post claimed the earthquakes that hit Turkey and Syria earlier this month were generated by HAARP.
